This is a MARCOS CHINA shekere. I imported it personally from Brazil, but I no longer have the opportunity to use it, and I've only used it a few times in studio rehearsals. It's a large shekere, and the sound is loud. I think it can be used in any genre without being drowned out. Also, you can adjust the beads with the string, so you can adjust it to be tight or loose. Circumference: Approximately 77cm Height: Approximately 40cm I think you won't find these new or used in Japan, so please take this opportunity.
