This is an extraordinary vintage hand-carved African Ashanti "Atompan" figured drum, made of wood in yellow and blue. This drum is an original piece from the Ashanti (Akan) tribe, and was used for many years. It is a unique and cultural piece that showcases intricate craftsmanship and traditional design elements. Perfect for collectors or those interested in African art and ethnographic artifacts. This ceremonial drum from Ghana measures 33 1/2″ (85 cm) tall x 19" (48 cm) diameter, in beautiful condition in spite of its age. The head is 10" (25 cm) in diameter. This was made for tribal use and was used often as evidenced by its patina. Now, it can certainly be modified for musical use but in its current state it is much more decorative than musical.
