Shamanic Drum "Tree" with Hide
Goat Skin & Mahogany Wood, Bali
The special feature of this lightweight shamanic frame drum is its tree-style wooden handle, which represents the connection to the World Tree. Handcrafted in Bali, the drum has a diameter of 40 cm and consists of a mahogany plywood frame covered with goat skin. It delivers a deep, full sound and is traditionally played with a mallet made of coffee wood and leather, which is included in the delivery. Due to the unique grain patterns of the goat skin, every drum is one of a kind. Jaw harps and rattles make great accompanying instruments. An audio sample can be found below.
Notice:
Inspect the drum for damage before first use. When playing a drum with a stick, there is a risk that the stick may slip off when striking and cause injuries to the hands or face. Care should also be taken not to strike the drum too hard to prevent damage to the instrument and potential hearing damage from loud noises. The vibrations of the drum can be intense. Sensitive individuals or people with certain health conditions (e.g., cardiovascular issues) should handle the drum with caution.
Care:
To care for a wooden drum with animal hide, wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt, and keep the skin protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not store the drum near heaters or in very cold rooms to avoid cracks in the hide or frame. Use a padded bag during transport to protect the drum from impacts.
Disposal:
Please check with your local waste management facility regarding environmentally friendly disposal.
