Colorful geometric motifs ring this ashiko drum by Samuel Coleman. Crafted by hand from tweneboa wood, the drum actually belongs to the djembe family and is tuned in the same way. Its goatskin head is firmly attached with cotton-covered iron rings and nylon rope in an attractive interwoven pattern. The body of the drum is finished with oil paints and mansion polish. It can be slung over the shoulder with a hand-woven kente cloth cord and carried to the next jam session.
