Ocean Drum - Natural

While we see if it is feasible to restock our original large rattan ocean drum, we have sourced a few of these beautiful natural leather versions as an alternative.

The ocean drum is held by the frame, with the head horizontal, and played by rolling the wrists so the drum gently tilts in all directions. The beads inside roll over the bottom head like water rolling over the shore. Different speeds produce different sounds. Stopping and starting suddenly creates crashing wave sounds.

This beautifully crafted hand drum has an ethically sourced goat skin exterior body and handle. It is an absolutely stunning addition to your instrument collection and beautiful to display too. 

Please note this product is a traditional instrument not a toy. Due to small parts inside it is not suitable for children under 3 years without supervision. 

Our Ocean drums are hand made instruments under tension with natural goat skins. It is not uncommon for the frame to have some minor natural movement especially with changing weather conditions. This is all part of having a handmade instrument, rather than a factory/machine made instrument. The sound and integrity of the instrument should not be impacted.

Approximate dimensions: 29cm diameter, 3.5cm thick

Country of origin: Ghana

Due to the nature of handcrafted products by small business artisans, stock is limited and variations may occur.
