Choose a 60 cm (24 in) size for your next djembe

To get the best possible sound, most djembes are about 60 cm (24 in) tall with a head diameter of about 30 cm (12 in), just like the model featured here. These dimensions are ideal because the djembe can produce a full range of tones that smaller models cannot, while still remaining relatively portable at 6 kg (13 lb 3.6 oz). As a result, it strikes the perfect balance, a principle well understood by the djembe masters in Africa, who are sometimes called djembefolas. This particular djembe measures 60 cm (24 in) and is crafted entirely from solid mahogany, giving it remarkable acoustics. Decorative symbols are carved all around the base of its shell, and its head is fitted with excellent natural goatskin that will produce beautiful resonance. Finally, its tightly spaced lacing promises ideal tension that will last a long time. Create rhythms like a master and add this djembe to your cart to make it yours.

Included as a gift:

• A fabric carrying bag
