This 40 cm handmade djembe has a solid wood carved body and a wide natural skin head decorated with the tree of life. Its size produces a deep bass sound while remaining easy to handle.

Features

• Body: hand-carved solid wood
• Head: natural skin with a printed design
• Tuning: traditional, with ropes
• Height: 40 cm

How to play

Sit with the djembe between your legs, tilted slightly forward so that the sound comes out from underneath. Strike the center of the head with your palm for the bass tone and the edge with your fingers for the high tones.

Care

Avoid direct sunlight, rain, and sudden temperature changes, as the skin tightens or loosens with humidity. Being handmade, each djembe has slight differences in the wood grain and design.

Who is it for?

For those starting out in percussion who want a drum with a full sound, for drum circles and classes, or as a decorative piece in a bohemian-style living room.
