Africa Heartwood Project djembes are hand-carved experienced drum makers in West Africa. The Classical djembes are specially crafted with sound quality and playability in mind, with additional attention give to aesthetics. The 6-7″ X 14-15″ is a smallest size version of a full size djembe that we carry; this is NOT a toy or merely a souvenir that you would expect to fall apart after a few months or sound cheap. The Classic Heartwood Djembe 6×14 drum is fully playable, similar to a dumbek or a bongo. The size is suitable for most 2-5 year old children, but is also great for backpacking and as a substitute for a bongo, or when tuned high, a dumbek. All Classical Heartwood djembes are backed up by our satisfaction guarantee, and feature our 10 Point Quality Assurance. Purchase with confidence, knowing each djembe is always individually inspected and tested before shipping. Decorative carvings in the base typically consist of tasteful geometric patterns, similar to those shown in the photos above.
