Karimba

Varnished Thumb Piano Imported from Bali. Seven note range.

£13.99






A great unique gift idea from HandcraftedUK!

This thumb piano has been handmade in Bail from a dried coconut shell.

The piano is very easy to play: Just hold the Karimba in one hand whilst plucking the metal bars with the other. The instrument is tuneable and has a seven note range, meaning the pitch can be changed to your liking. Known also as a Calimba or Kalimba, the musical instrument originated in Zimbabwe and was played by the Shona people when settling Mozambique. The Shona people still use the instrument to this day during their ceremonies.

This ethnic musical instrument would make an excellent gift to give to someone who likes unusual hand made items. It would also be appreciated by those with an interest in African instruments.

Measures 20cm (8") in length, 18cm (7") in diameter and, 10cm (4") in width. 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!
