Castanets red with print

Red castanets with print are wooden hand clappers in Spanish style, with a shiny red lacquer and a print of a dancing flamenco couple. Below the dancers, a woman in a red ruffled dress and a man in blue, is a banner with the word España in red and yellow. You use them during carnival or at a Spanish-themed party, and they are intended for ladies and gentlemen.

Spanish clappers in the flamenco

Hand clappers like these belong to Spanish folk dance and flamenco, where dancers follow the rhythm of the music with a fast tapping. In Spanish they are called castañuelas and in English castanets. Traditionally you slide the cord around your thumb and strike the two hollow halves against each other with your fingers. Anyone who practices it once will soon hear the recognizable rattling sound of a Spanish dance evening.

Red clappers with fan, flower and earrings

The red of the lacquer looks best next to a red lipstick and a red flower in the hair. Large round earrings and a black fan complete the Spanish danceress look. Gentlemen choose a black shirt with a red sash, so that the clappers in their hand remain the most striking accent.
