DRUM 2
14" high
$600
This drum has been vetted as authentic with signs of use and age.
Drums are among the most important art forms in Africa, used both as a musical instrument and as a work of sculpture significant in many ceremonial functions, including dance, rituals, story-telling and communication of messages.
The head on this drum is somewhat intact, but not really playable.
