All the djembes in this section have been hand selected by us in Guinea. They represent the highest quality available in this land, each one being individually hand made by craftsmen who do only this work, day in, day out. There has been no machine processing of the wood. Therefore, any price differences relate only to the size of the instrument, and the decoration.
