Producer Story

In Zimbabwe, the simplest task is complex with hyperinflation and fuel rationing, yet craftspeople in Harare manage to produce colorful tin animals and insects out of recycled cans, steel wire and beads and Mbiras, also called finger pianos. This type of art is often referred to as slum art as the artisans work independently in their homes, which are often located in the slums. To help bring these unique items to western markets.

15 Key Mbira - Finger Piano - Kalimba

Description

The quintessential African instrument, the Zimbabwean mbira is a thumb piano with an incredibly magical sound. Craftspeople make this instrument from recycled materials ranging from scraps of tin, wood from discarded crates, wire, and bottle caps. The metal is rusty, the varnished wood gouged, but none of this detracts from an instrument that mysteriously all musicians must own. Dimensions are approximately 5.5 X 8 X 0.5 inches but due to the nature of the product, sizes will vary.
