I can't remember how long I've had this strange looking rattle.Look and feel like black pottery but has a face with little mouth open.Measure 4".I believe it came out of an attic of an estate sale years ago.Anybody know what this item is.

Good one Mart! A point for you!
-
Thanks soooooooo much Mart!!!!!

Mart went to google and put in spirit rattle and found mine,I meant spirit rattle by Nan Emmett also found it on Ebay!
-
Not yours !! Didn`t search for spirit rattle !! Didn`t know there was such a thing !! If you look at the first link there are many !!
I used "black pottery Oaxacan hand rattle" as search term !! Which one is yours ??
-
I used the same terms you gave me.And I found several same as the one I have.Same measurement.Same face expression

Thats odd,, I did not find a single one like yours !! What search engine do you use ?? Mine is Yahoo !! One of the listings is where I found several of these !! Can`t remember which one !!

Why did you remove the Worthpoint link? It would help Mart to see the picture.....

I tried to go to the link to be sure it would show but nothing came up,maybe I pasted it wrong,I can try again,I'm new at this

Ha !! It is like yours !! How cute !! All I found were painted faces and other designs !! Susiecat I thought you meant I found the one you have,, not one just like yours !!
