Infinite Love

Wood djembe drum, 'Infinite Love'

by Samuel Coleman

Artist Bio & Reviews

Due to my interest in all things cultural things, I then decided to get involved in artworks, especially carving - drums to be specific.

View other items by this artist

The djembe awaits a willing musician. Electric currents of bold West African rhythms race around the smooth contours of tweneboa wood. Samuel Coleman crafts a handsome drum that he names Odo Ntoaso, "infinite love" in the Akan language. He sculpts the drum from tweneboa wood, finished with mansion polish. The goatskin head is affixed by iron rings wrapped in cotton, and a macramé nylon cord can be slung over the shoulder.

Customer Reviews of Samuel Coleman
I am extremely pleased with my djembe, "Infinite Love". The versatility of sounds is remarkable and this drum is a pure pleasure to play. The workmanship is high quality. Even more important is the beautiful tones possible with variations of hand positions and pressure. Thank you, Mr. Coleman. My heart and my hands send you many smiles and my home now reverberates with the sound of your homeland.
