Product description
Eye-catching hand-carved wooden drum with a hair-on animal-hide head and bold painted panels — a decorative percussion piece with visible wear that still retains a taut, playable skin. Photos show the original leather lacing and small timber pegs, detailed geometric paintwork on the body and a hair-on hide head that is worn and frayed around the rim.
Great for collectors of folk instruments, ethnic décor or stylists seeking an authentic accent for a lounge, studio or boutique. Suitable as a decorative display piece or for light playing by a drummer who accepts cosmetic wear; will also suit restoration, prop use or crafty upcycling projects.
