Artisanal instruments
Each piece is made by hand — small natural variations in material and finish are part of the craft. Yours will not look exactly like the photos.
The culture behind the craft
Before it is an instrument, it is a voice.
Every instrument in this workshop is born of Afro-Brazilian tradition — carried from the terreiros of Salvador and the drumming traditions of West Africa. Read how the rhythms of Bahia are played, and why an instrument made here carries more than its materials.
