More Details
Carved from Ironwood or “Gele” (Prosopis Africana), one of the densest of all West African hardwoods. Distinct dark red (almost black) hues with often wavey grain patterns. Produces bright resonant sounds (like Khadi) and is suited to solo drums.
All of our djembe shells come with a bottom ring and two matched top rings included. If you have a preference for looser or tighter rings, let us know in your order!
