Title: snake skin drum
Post by: Jodocus on May 04, 2014, 01:17:36 pm

Here's a little drum I made from untreated untempered clay and reduction fired in my wood kiln. I put on some rawhide from an albino phyton I skinned recently. The skin is glued on with hide glue and bound to the drum with twisted gut. I dunno who made the stone bead, it's rather old. It's 4 or 5 inches across the skin.

How cool is that!
Love the dark color of the pot. Horse poop?
I want to hear it played. Wonder if it hisses?
