Wood Djembe - Artifact SERIES
Solid Mahogany wood
Each djembe is a masterpiece, meticulously carved from a single, sustainably sourced piece of plantation-grown mahogany wood. This craftsmanship ensures not only the instrument's durability but also its rich, authentic tone. As a testament to Meinl's commitment to both quality and environmental responsibility, these drums resonate with the spirit of Africa, inviting musicians to connect with the continent's musical heritage while honoring the earth's resources.
Hand selected goat head
The djembe features a distinctive touch - each drum is adorned with a hand-selected goat head. This striking choice not only adds a visual allure but also contributes to the drums' unique tonal qualities. The goat skin, carefully chosen for its texture and resilience, produces a warm, resonant sound that harmonizes perfectly with the mahogany body. It's a testament to Meinl's dedication to crafting instruments that are both visually stunning and sonically captivating.
