This powerful ritual tool comes to you in a size of 37 cm and a weight of 910 g, safely packaged in self-recycled cushioning material.
Have you ever wondered what the wisdom of the earth feels like in your hands? This shamanic rattle, featuring the symbol of the Hopi hand and crafted from the gifts of nature, is more than an instrument—it’s a tool for connection. With amber embedded in the sounding body that glows like a window to prehistoric times, and a wooden handle that carries the energy of the forest, it accompanies you in rituals, meditations, and moments when the unseen speaks.
The rattle in detail:
– Clay resonators: The Hopi hand, a symbol of protection, healing, and the ability to direct energy, is crafted from traditionally fired clay. The smoke-fired technique gives it rough textures, ash marks, and unique patterns—each piece is unique, bearing the story of fire.
– Amber embedded in clay: A golden treasure from prehistoric times. It symbolizes eternal wisdom, light in the darkness, and the power to connect the past with the present.
– Wooden handle: Robust, naturally grown and smooth in the hand – as if it carried the memory of the tree that once took root.
– Decorative elements: Bodhi beads (enlightenment), wooden beads (cycle of life), feathers (messengers between the worlds), and a freshwater pearl (intuition, purity) adorn the rattle. Every detail is chosen with intention.
Why this rattle?
Sound of Transformation: Filled with small stones or seeds, it produces a deep, earthy tone – as if it carried the voice of the ancestors within it.
Handcrafted magic: The amber in the clay captures the light – a symbol that even in the darkness, sparks of hope glow.
Ritual versatility: Use it to cleanse spaces, accompany shamanic journeys, rhythmize prayers, or deepen your meditation.
For your practice:
Shamanism: Shake the rattle to connect with spirit guides or harmonize energies.
Meditation: Let the sound guide you into deep relaxation – the amber in the tone reminds you to rest in the here and now.
Altar center: Place it as a symbol of protection and spiritual dialogue – the Hopi hand becomes the guardian of your sacred space.
A unique piece – as unique as the night
Through smoke firing and the natural arrangement of the stones, each rattle reflects darkness in all its depth—sometimes with dominant plumes of smoke, sometimes with sparkling stone accents. The moon shape may appear simple, but it carries the power of transformation: “What matures in secret will eventually emerge.”
I am happy to implement commissioned work or your own ideas for a special piece, if it is compatible with my way of working.

Though there are many enchanting figures offered in this shop, this bear figure at once called my attention. As with all one-of-a-kind pieces, I felt a bit of anxiety — as if the item in question would be lost to me if I did not obtain it then and there. This piece is larger and heavier than I imagined. The shape of the figure, though unique to my eye, calls back to works of the ancient past. The bear is a special being to me, and I am happy I was able to add this piece to my sacred space. She will definitely have a permanent place watching over my inward journeys. I look forward to revisiting this shop someday, and I highly recommend Michaela’s delightful offerings.

Ever since I first saw the Lion Man, I’ve been fascinated by him. I think sculpting a man and a woman is a brilliant idea. They’re both heavy and sturdy, but the construction and the smoke firing make them look like they’re made of bone. I enjoy them every day.
that the two of them are with me.
