Which instrument is this?

Signed: Asa - Sep 04 10


In a charity shop I bought this lovely instrument. It’s made of a half coconut and it’s nicely painted. Little metal strips are fixed and when you push them, it gives a clear sound.
We only don’t know what it is, has it a name, is it Australian (as the painting reminds us of aboriginal art) and is it still used? Can you help us out? If so, please let me kow. Thanks a lot.
