Spiral Rainsticks
Beautiful Sounds is excited to showcase the unique handcrafted Spiral Rainsticks by music instrument artisan Noah Rectenwald of Rainstick Dreams in Pittsburgh, PA!
Noah's beautiful rainsticks incorporate natural materials like amaranth (a small ancient grain) as the fill material for softer rain sounds, and clear micro glass beads for louder rain sounds. The simulated rain sound acts as a soothing and consistent background white noise that can bring the nervous system and mind into greater relaxation. And unlike other rainsticks on the market, these ingenious rainsticks were designed for much longer playing time, and stand up on their own ends without the need to hold it in your hands during play.Â
Spiral Rainsticks are perfect for personal relaxation and meditation at home, for teaching online or in person yoga and meditation, for including in sound baths, and also wonderful for audio recordings as well! Â
Â
How do I choose which Spiral Rainstick fits my needs?
Like an hourglass, once the rainstick is placed upright with most or all the contents in the top compartment, gravity brings the contents through a small opening and a continuous amount of grains, seed or beads cascade down the internal bamboo or wooden spiral staircase, creating a prolonged gentle rain sound. The sound duration for each Spiral Rainstick depends on the rainstick size and the rainstick contents.Â
Please note: Amaranth models are more subtle than the Micro Glass Bead models, so for larger spaces you may want the Micro model so it is loud enough for your event.
