Rare Early Native American Artifact Bladder/Rawhide Ceremonial Shayman Rattle
Early Native American bladder rattles were fascinating musical instruments, often used in various cultural and ceremonial contexts. These rattles were typically made from animal bladders, which were inflated and dried. The bladder was then filled with small objects like pebbles or seeds to create sound when shaken. This rare early Native American bladder/rawhide Shayman rattle is a true gem for collectors and American Indian enthusiasts alike. The painted red and blue designs are a stunning piece of art that represents the Native American culture in the United States. One side of the rattle features a triangle with markings near the NE and NW sides, indicating “morning stars” and a two-tone V on the top indicating “thunderbird”. One side is unrecognizable but has five blue and red lines in some form of pattern. One of a kind piece, museum quality. The rattle is mounted on a wooden handle (with small leather strap) and has two very small pin hole marks on the bladder. The rattle measures approximately 10 inches, and is about 2 inches at the widest point of the bladder rattle. Minor scuffs to the wood handle, but appears to be natural aging. The rattle gives off a nice sound as several stones or seeds bounce around inside. The piece is in great condition, and a once in a lifetime opportunity. This piece was obtained through an estate sale, with fourth generation currently in possession. By the owner’s great grandmother. Who at the time was a collector of Native American artifacts. From a collector in Pasadena during the 1930s. Collector had Navajo, Cherokee, Apache, Hopi, and Cheyenne collectables. This piece is unknown. A note was obtained along with the artifacts (pictured). Past down three generations, this piece was found along with two other artifacts, (including a ceremonial “peace pipe” and stone axe in separate listings) which have been stored in a unit for nearly 30 years. Questions and comments welcomed. Item Lot 1 G.
