The complexity of the surface

Crackle Glaze: Visual and Tonal Texture

The Red Crackle Darbuka utilizes a complex finishing technique to achieve its signature aesthetic. This process ensures the drum is a masterpiece of both acoustic quality and decorative art.

The Signature Crackle

The distinctive red and black network of cracks is intentionally crafted through firing, providing a unique, high-end, and visually textured finish.

The Pottery Advantage

The ceramic body delivers a deep, resonant doum and a clean tek that is warm and organic, setting it apart from harsh metallic voices.

Highly Portable Pottery

Weighing just 4.85 lb, this drum is surprisingly lightweight for its material, making it easier to transport than most traditional ceramic models.
