EAGLE Dance RATTLE

excellent carving and painting all around on each side. These dance rattles are very important and present at any potlatch ceremony. The sound is strong (I'm enclosing a video...) . Signed underneath the base by SARAH ROBERTSON, a very well known Master artist from the Kwagiulth First Nation. Sarah is a very kind and gentle soul and I always very much enjoy meeting with her and her lovely large family.

Measurements: the Rattle itself is 13" x 4" x 4", 11" high in base, base is 9 1/2" x 5 1/2" 

Meaning: The Eagle symbolizes grace, power and great intellect. It is a sacred and noble creature representing power and prestige to the First Nations people of the Northwest Coast. It symbolizes wisdom and has a special and direct connection to the creator. Eagles mate for life and are therefore also seen as a symbol of lasting love and dedication

Note: Overseas shipping is available, costs ($69 CAD) will be added at check-out, USD amount estimated on average rate, updated weekly
