On offer is a vintage mid-20th-century hand-carved African drum, a bold and characterful piece of traditional craftsmanship that now offers endless decorative potential.

Although the drum no longer retains its playable skin, its impressive form, solid carved body, and rich patina make it perfect for use as a unique plant stand, display base, or statement décor accent in any interior—especially boho, global, tribal, or rustic-themed spaces.

Measuring just under 21 inches tall with a top diameter of approximately 11.5 inches, the drum is hollow inside and carved from thick, heavy African hardwood. The interior has been left in a rough, unfinished state, so we recommend wearing gloves if handling it directly.

This piece reflects the authentic artistry of African percussion instruments, likely from West or Central Africa, and would traditionally have been used in ceremonial or social settings. Now, it’s ready to bring character and global charm into your home.
