Several types of bells are used in African music:  Gankogui (double bell), Karignan (scraper bell), cow bell, banana bell, or dunun drum bells.

The bells  are made of metal and produce high tones that are used to highlight the rhythm of the music. To play a bell, hold the bell in one hand and strike with a metal stick provided with the bell in the other hand. 

All the bells in our offer are handmade and come from the best masters from traditional workshops in West Africa.
