Djembe - Stand Together

stand together carved djembe
(larger image)

Description: Standing together, abstract figures like flying buttresses support a drum. Nana Adu Amankwapam I sculpts a handsome djembe from sese wood to illustrate the concept of African unity. The goatskin head is affixed by iron rings wrapped in cotton, and a macramé cord can be slung over the shoulder. The djembe originated in Benin, where it is used during voodoo rites, and has been introduced into neighboring countries such as Ghana. It is an indispensable instrument in contemporary reggae.

TESTAMONIALS
"I am completely delighted with the "Unity" bougarabou which was purchased last week, and delivered to my door today (how astonishing is that?). It's not the biggest drum in my collection, but by far the most interesting, and it sounds great, too. Thank you! The NOvica experience has been overwhelmingly positive. I'm taking the drum to work tomorrow to show it off to a Ghanaian co-worker! Thank you, Sir!"
