Technical specifications of the mini thumb piano or kalimba
Type of instrument: percussion – idiophone – lamellophone
The camphor wood used in this model may not be to everyone’s liking due to its eucalyptus-like scent, which can linger for years. If that sounds like you, consider the African likembe instrument, which is made from gorgeous black sandalwood. Alternatively, choose one of our mahogany kalimbas, which are very neutral in terms of smell.
