Diameter 2.5" - These sagat are similar to brass castanets. They are ideal for the clam-shell method of playing. Their wide rim and small dome produce a variety of pitches & a short sweet ring. Rounded edges fit comfortably into the palms and give a hollow wood-like clack. They have been a favorite on Mohammed Ali Street in Cairo for over 50 years. These are the best model to learn how to make sagat "talk."
