Bien reçu l'objet. Parfaitement emballé. Un peu déçu... effectivement il n'est pas en bois...trop dense et lourd pour cela ... peut-être en pierre ...ou un autre matériau non identifié pour l'instant.

No. 92777479
First class and mind-blowing drum in surprisingly good shape.
This 'Kundu' drum ( pidgin name ) has the characteristic hourglass form.
Colored with strong red pigment.
Covered with a varanus skin drumhead.
This drum still sounds great because the skin is still properly tensioned.
Rare piece in this condition.
