Vintage handmade rawhide frame drum set, believed to date from 1995 based on the handwritten “1995” found on the inside of the wooden drum frame.
Includes all 3 pieces shown:
• Rawhide frame/hand drum – approximately 15" across
• Long rawhide-wrapped drum beater – approximately 26" long
• Small rawhide rattle – approximately 11" long
Beautiful handmade construction with a natural rawhide drum head stretched over a wooden frame and rawhide lacing/handhold on the reverse. The long beater is extensively wrapped in rawhide with a padded striking end. The smaller piece is a handmade rawhide rattle.
All three pieces were found together and are being sold together as found. No maker name or other identifying marks were located, so I am not attributing the set to a particular maker, tribe, or cultural origin.
Vintage pre-owned condition with natural variations, discoloration, marks and wear from age/use. The small rattle has damage/chipping at the bottom end of the wooden handle, as shown in photos. Drum and large beater display very nicely.
Please review all photos carefully for condition and construction. You will receive the exact three pieces pictured.
