Elena Garabato

ELEGUA GARABATO 

These are  hand made and beaded garabatos or guava wood hooks that Elegua uses to remove obstacles from the person's life. Eleggua also uses it to bring blessings or ire to the person. Both are made with all glass Czech beads, one has a little beaded gourd with red parrot feathers and both have many charms - coins, dice, cowries, associated with Elegua and his blessings. The canes have beaded sections that use his colors - red, white, and black in different ways.
