"The Forest Woodblock" Natural Seed Percussion

A handcrafted instrument made from a hollow forest nut, producing a deep, meditative "tok-tok" sound.

The Story: A Pocket Sanctuary

"The Forest Woodblock" is inspired by the traditional "Muyu" (Wooden Fish) used in Zen temples, reimagined here with raw materials from the wild.

The body is a large, dried hollow fruit shell, naturally tuned to produce a warm, woody resonance. It comes with an attached striker—a small wooden mallet on a cord. Struck, the shell sounds an earthy, hollow beat. A strap of mixed Bodhi seeds and colorful beads makes it both a beautiful object and a working tool for mindfulness and stress relief.

Key Features

• Playable Instrument: Use the attached wooden mallet to strike the large hollow nut. It produces a satisfying, resonant woodblock sound.
• Large Hollow Resonator: The centerpiece is a massive, textured dark fruit shell (resembling a coconut or large pod) with a natural sound hole carved into it.
• Bodhi Seed Strap: The handle is a beaded loop of Phoenix Eye Bodhi, wooden beads, and pops of red/yellow. It fits comfortably over the wrist or hangs on a wall.
• Mindfulness Tool: Made for meditation, breathwork, or fidgeting. The rhythmic tapping helps focus the mind and calm anxiety.
• Raw & Rustic: The texture of the shell is rough and organic, preserving the touch of the tree it came from.
