HANDCRAFTED IN AFRICA – Crafted by village cultural artisans in Burkina Faso, the Gourd Drum Bowl is made from gourds, leather, and cowrie shells.
VERSATILE DESIGN – Measuring 12" in diameter, this gourd bowl can be used as an African dance prop, turned upside down as a drum, or as a decorative bowl. Its versatility makes it an excellent addition to your home or performance.
CULTURAL DETAILING – The gourd is lined with 16-20 sets of cowrie shells, adding a stunning, cultural touch. These decorative shells symbolize wealth and prosperity in many African cultures.
