Elephant Wide Top Djembe Drum

The Wide Top Djembe Drum 20cm with Elephant design is a unique and culturally significant percussion instrument that honors both West African musical heritage and the profound symbolism of the elephant across African traditions.

Handcrafted in Indonesia with genuine goatskin, this compact 20cm djembe features the distinctive goblet shape and flared top characteristic of traditional West African drums.

The hand-painted elephant on the drum's skin adds powerful cultural and spiritual significance.

The compact size makes it accessible for all ages and perfect for travel, outdoor gatherings, or keeping in sacred spaces.

Djembe drums originated from West Africa, particularly the Mali region, and have gained worldwide popularity due to their versatility, expressive range, and ability to communicate through rhythm. This elephant-adorned drum bridges musical tradition with symbolic artistry, creating an instrument that speaks to both the ears and the soul.

Perfect for drummers, world music enthusiasts, animal lovers, and anyone drawn to instruments that celebrate African cultural heritage and natural wisdom.
