The Rum Atabaque with two-tone wood finish is an aesthetic version of our traditional Rum model. It offers the same manufacturing quality, the same powerful sound and the same handcrafted standards as our classic Rum Atabaque.
This special finish combines two different wood tones to create a more elegant and distinctive instrument while preserving the deep, powerful sound that characterizes the largest atabaque model.
The Rum Atabaque is a fundamental instrument in Capoeira, but it is also deeply connected to Afro-Brazilian musical traditions such as Candomblé, Umbanda and other African-rooted cultural and spiritual practices.
Used as a traditional Brazilian percussion drum, it accompanies rhythms, songs and ceremonies where the vibration of the drum plays an essential role.
Thanks to its large size, the Rum produces a deep, powerful and resonant sound, making it ideal for creating a rich and expressive rhythmic foundation.
This Rum Atabaque is handmade by an experienced artisan specialized in the production of traditional instruments.
Each instrument is made using carefully selected materials:
This construction provides a strong and durable drum, perfectly suited for regular use by capoeira teachers, schools, groups and musicians.
The main feature of this model is its visual appearance.
The combination of two wood shades gives the instrument a more refined and elegant look while preserving the traditional identity of the atabaque.
As each instrument is individually handcrafted, slight variations may naturally appear:
These differences are normal and reflect the unique character of a handmade instrument.
Photos and videos are provided for illustrative purposes only and may slightly vary from the actual instrument.
To offer a high-quality instrument while respecting natural resources, we prioritize wood sourced from responsibly managed production.
Some wood species traditionally used in Brazilian instrument making are now protected or subject to strict regulations. This approach provides a sustainable alternative while maintaining the acoustic qualities expected from a professional capoeira atabaque.
