About this item

  • 【Historical Origins】The djembe originated from the Manding culture in West Africa and has a history of thousands of years. It is an essential part of African traditional music and dance. Dancers perform according to the rhythm and melody of the drumbeats. The coordination between the drum and the dance jointly showcases the unique charm of African culture.
  • 【Structural Features】The drum body is made by hollowing out a whole section of mahogany. The goblet - shaped design of the drum body helps with sound resonance and transmission. The drumhead is made of sheepskin, so it is normal to have spots, pores, etc. The specially treated drumhead can provide rich timbres and good resonance effects. Ropes and metal rings are used to fix the drumhead to the drum body. By adjusting the tightness of the ropes, the pitch and timbre of the drum can be adjusted.
  • 【Hand - carved】This is a product specially designed for drum circle activities. Each drum body is hand - carved, featuring a strong traditional style. It reflects the exquisite craftsmanship and unique ingenuity of the artisans, and has a unique handmade texture. Traditional decorative elements such as geometric patterns and totems not only have aesthetic value but also carry rich cultural connotations, adding profound cultural heritage and unique ethnic customs to drum circle activities. This uniqueness makes each drum a one - of - a - kind work of art, showing its unique personality and charm in the drum circle.
  • 【Timbre Characteristics】High - pitched Tones: By quickly striking the edge of the drumhead, a crisp and bright high - pitched sound can be produced. This high - pitched sound often serves to emphasize and embellish the rhythm.Mid - pitched Tones: When hitting the central area of the drumhead, a full and mellow sound is emitted. This mid - pitched sound is the main component of the djembe's timbre, providing stable rhythmic support and making the overall rhythm more substantial.Low - pitched Tones: Striking the drumhead forcefully yields a deep and heavy low - pitched sound, resembling the rumbling of the earth. This enhances the sense of power and rhythm in the music.
  • 【Playing Techniques】These include single - tone playing methods, compound playing methods, rhythm patterns, etc. For example, Samba rhythm, Reggae rhythm, etc. Each rhythm has its unique melody and characteristics. Performers can make choices and innovations according to different musical styles and occasions.


At 15.7 inches high and 8.7 inches wide, this African drum is a professional African drum. It can be played by hand, mainly in low, middle and high tones. Accompanied by dancers and singers, it is also great for playing with the rest of the band's instruments.
