African Instruments

We carry handcrafted instruments from every continent — African djembes and kalimbas, Asian singing bowls and crystal bowls, European handpans and ocarinas, American tongue drums, and Middle Eastern harpikas. Every instrument is sustainably sourced and artisan-made.

Tons of our instruments are perfect for beginners. Kalimbas, tongue drums, and ocarinas use pentatonic scales where every note sounds great together — you literally can't play a wrong note. Each product page has a skill level badge to help you pick the right one.

We work with artisan workshops that use responsibly sourced wood, recycled metals, water-based finishes, and minimal packaging. Many of our wooden instruments are crafted from FSC-certified timber or reclaimed hardwood, and we offset all shipping carbon emissions.

For sure! Every product page has a sound sample so you can hear the instrument's tone and resonance before you buy. We also include tuning and key specs so you know exactly what scale and frequency you're getting.
