Black spots contrast with the warm grain of mahogany in this Balinese jambe or djembe drum. Khoirul Anam crafts a classic design that depicts Semar, the most powerful deity of the wayang puppet theater genre. The rotund god is the guardian spirit of Java. The instrument is crowned with a white goatskin drumhead, attached with black and white nylon cords that contrast beautifully with the base.
