SOLD This Water Drum Red will be perfect in your collection!  The crafter made it from a premade wood base with metal straps.  He painted this base a dark red.  It comes with a piece of Smoke Deerskin Leather and a fabric wrapped top rim.  There is a removable stopper that is not painted.  It does not come with a beater.  The Water Drum Red measures about 6 inches tall with a 7.25 inch diameter base. One of a Kind!
Water Drums consist of a hollow chamber that users fill with water to create a unique sound. Native Americans from North and South America use Water Drums in their ceremonies and social gatherings. Sometimes musicians make them from clay or old crockery in addition to hollowed out wood. Water drums typically have a hole in their side for adding or letting out water once the cover is on, which is then plugged with a stopper.
