This Beautiful and Functional Doumbek Drum is also an Art Piece. This Stoneware Drum is an original design hand made and hand carved by Mayra, our California ceramic artist. This drum is adorned with a Thunderbird shield. It has an amazing "dum" and "tek" and the head never changes with the weather. Certainly one of the best ceramic drums you can buy. The drum head is goat hide and there is a woven strap attached for easy carrying. This is a one of a kind Drum. Though Mayra will make more than one drum, each drum is original and unique. Each Drum is signed and comes with more biographical information about Mayra. The two photos show the actual piece and a close up.
Our potter is a west coaster, making pottery for over 20 years. "As well as designing and handcrafting each piece I also formulate the glazes. In respect to the glazes I love that which is reminiscent of rock; the surface and the colors, while still being functional, and that which feels good to the touch while in use."
Sizing and Details:The Drum head is made from Goat hide 9 inches in diameter. 15" height & 9" diameter . Shipping is $22 in the continental US.
