Antique Wood Drum, Qing Dynasty or Earlier



We are offering a rare antique Chinese wood drum with a refined shape of scholar's taste. The slender wood drum is covered on both ends with leather for percussion. Two metal rings are attached on the side for suspending rope. The surface of the wood is covered with fine patina and has retained most of the original red lacquer. Unlike most other primitive drum, this beautiful drum is unique for its elegant shape of beautiful proportion and quality materials. Except for natural surface wear and minor board separation, this drum from early Chinese scholars' studio is in excellent condition. We date this wonderful drum to be from early Qing Dynasty or perhaps even earlier.
