Natural Goatskin Rawhide Drum Heads – Unbleached Vellum Rounds
These natural goatskin rawhide rounds are carefully selected and prepared for traditional drum making. Made from genuine unbleached goatskin vellum, they offer the strength, flexibility and acoustic response required for high-quality percussion instruments.
Goatskin has been used for centuries in drum making due to its balanced tone, durability and natural resonance. When properly soaked, stretched and mounted, the skin produces a warm, responsive sound suitable for a wide variety of traditional drums.
Each skin is a natural material and will present unique variations in color, texture and markings, which are characteristic of genuine goatskin vellum.
Common Uses
• Frame drums
• Doumbek / Darbuka
• Hoop drums
• Shamanic drums
• Bodhrán drums
• Hand percussion instruments
• Traditional drum making and instrument restoration
These skins are widely used by instrument makers, drum builders and traditional percussion craftsmen around the world.
