The Ivory Planets Darbuka is from our crisp, white Ivory Pearl collection.
Ivory Planets Darbuka features:
This features bold black designs that resemble celestial bodies, standing out like a bright full moon in the dead of night. The dark black body is inlaid with star-shaped pieces of Mother of Pearl, resulting in a Darbuka instrument that genuinely stands out and makes an impression.
Here at Gawharet El Fan, we focus on providing only the best Darbuka drums, accessories and lessons. Shop today to experience the magic of the Darbuka.
As to be expected with all handmade instruments, there may be some minor variations in design, slight imperfections on the body and some small scratches on the Darbuka head. This will not affect the quality of the sound in any way. All items are new. Darbukas should be played regularly for the first few weeks until the head sets fully, and the true beauty of the sound starts to shine through.

Typical timescales to change Darbuka skins are: - Every 6 months for a Darbuka played more than an hour a day (e.g. at a professional level) - Every 12-15 months for a standard Darbuka player (e.g. a casual player who plays for leisure) |
