Description

Hand effect made of upcycled PET bottle lids and small plastic containers

Who would expect such fine and pretty sounds from a bunch of plastic lids? If you gently stroke over all the different lids or softly move the bundle to and fro, the soft sounds of falling rain will appear. If you shake it harder, it will remind you of a sudden cloudburst. A small, unusual instrument produced with loving detail in artisanal work, nice and colourful and with a broad sound spectrum!
You can also use it as a wind play or mobile!

Brand information

Marcos China RIO

Marcos, nicknamed 'China', lives in Rio. He is a capoeirista, musician and an instrument maker. Marcos used to live in France for many years and was very successful with his Band 'Tupi Nago'.


Back in Rio he started to make Caxixis because he wasn´t able to find any in the quality he wanted. Bit by bit he added other small percussion instruments to his range.

He makes small series of instruments with extraordinary artisanal skills and love to small details. MARCOS CHINA keeps on inventing funny little instruments like the caixa de mesa, the saculegé or a minishaker made of plastic parts of PET bottles.


MARCOS CHINA berimbaus are highly appreciated amongst capoeiristas as well as percussionists.
