    Description

    Photos are of the item you will receive.
    I bought this kalimba many years ago from a man selling African items on 125th street in Harlem, NYC. I believe it was hand-made in Africa and imported for sale in the US.
    It is a beautiful and hand-made item.
    The wooden top is beautifully trimmed in black and decorated with an image created with a burning tool.
    The bridge is also decorated with a burning tool in a cross-hatched pattern.
    Uniquely, the instrument appears to made from a tomato can.
    It measures about 5 inches across and is about 2 inches deep.
    It has 7 keys and is tuned in a beautiful sounding range of pitches.
    It’s a lot of fun to play.
    Ships worldwide, securely packaged.
    There may be shipping delays due to the pandemic.
    International buyers may have to pay tariffs.
