African Talking Drum
Large Painted Drum from West Africa. Apply differing pressures to the strings to produce varied tones.
£36.99
A great unique gift idea from HandcraftedUK!
The Talking Drum is a musical instrument which originates from West Africa. The tone of the drum can be changed by squeezing the strings under one arm. These tone changes are used in some parts of Africa as a means of communication. The Talking Drum is also widely used in African music making - particularly in Nigeria and Senegal.
The drum, which measures 30cm (12") in height and 16cm (6") in diameter, is fully playable and has been painted with a lovely tribal image. It would make an excellent gift to give to those who are interested in collecting unusual musical instruments or unique items in general.
Please note: As each drum is individually hand painted, drums may differ from those shown in the photo.
This is just one of the lovely unique gifts available from HandcraftedUK. For more gift ideas please take a look around our store. You're sure to find the perfect gift for that special occasion!
