AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Condition: in good, well-used condition with beautiful aged patina; the wood has a natural shrinkage crack (see photos) appropriate to its age and the climate. This does not affect the structural sturdiness. The drum skin shows historical wear, stains and signs of aging, but appears to be still largely original.

It is 112 cm tall
And the drum diameter (top) is 23 cm
Bottom diameter 25 cm
