AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This old drum, traditionally crafted from wood, twigs and leather (goat skin), produces a deep, earthy sound and is used in both Buddhism and Shamanism. The handle is shaped like a Phurba (also known as kila), a ritual dagger used to neutralize demonic powers according to Buddhist teachings, by nailing them to the ground.

The Dyangro is also used to ward off negativity.

The drum has a diameter of 37 cm and a depth of 11.5 cm. The total length, including the handle, is 68 cm.

Includes a traditional drumstick (Gajo).

Seller's Story

Rootz Gallery has an extensive collection of remarkable art objects from the non-Western world and a collection of modern and contemporary art. The art collection originally started with the gathering of modern and contemporary art. Due to a long-standing fascination with other cultures, it was quickly expanded to include non-Western art objects. The gallery has primarily focused on non-Western art for a long time, but has recently also refocused on modern and contemporary art. Many pieces originate from ritual contexts and have been carefully collected over a period of 40 years. The items, often acquired during travels and coming from old collections, offer a unique insight into authentic cultures and traditions.
