Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made Kelele shaker

This Kelele shaker from Percussion Plus features a barrel shaped shaker head and a tapered wooden handle. The barrel is simply filled with gravel, so the shaker produces a high pitched, ‘cha-cha’ sound when shaken rhythmically.

Named after the Swahili word for noise, this kelele shaker is the perfect addition to any school’s percussion selection, or for use in music therapy and early years development. The tapered handle is easy to grip, and the polished finish protects the hands whilst giving a great look.

Each rattle is hand made using traditional materials and methods. See below for more information about the Honestly Made range of musical instruments from Percussion Plus.

These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision.



A simple, geometric design

The gravel filled barrel-shaped shaker head gives a wonderfully crisp sound when shaken firmly. Its barrel shape with continuous curve also allows you to roll the shaker for a gentle, ocean like cascade. This kelele rattle also features an angular design etched into the instrument by hand for a natural, wooden design.



Our sustainable packaging

A key principle of Honestly Made is sustainability, and we’ve modified our packaging of these items accordingly. Many products are simply labelled with a recyclable cardboard tag and shipped exactly as we received them, but for cases where extra packaging is required, we have also adopted fully recyclable and biodegradable glassine paper bags.

Naturally, we don’t want to waste our pre-existing packaging material, meaning you might still receive some of these products in classic, non-glassine packaging. If so, rest assured that your order has contributed to our collective waste management mission.




Percussion Plus Honestly Made products are manufactured in independent family workshops that are too small to join Fair Trade groups or are located in countries that do not have such organisations. These suppliers and their subsidiaries all follow Fair trade principles which include:

  • Agreeing a fair price Use of recycled materials
  • Paying significant amounts upfront
  • Being loyal and reasonable in all dealings
  • Prioritising smaller suppliers over large factories
  • Manufacturing methods that do not damage the environment
