Daf- Made by Padouk

General Description:

The daf is a traditional Persian frame drum that has played a vital role in the music and cultural practices of the region for centuries. With its circular wooden frame and a drumhead typically made from animal skin, the daf produces a rich, resonant sound that can vary in tone and volume depending on the playing technique. Historically, the daf has been associated with Sufi rituals and gatherings, where its rhythmic beats are believed to induce a trance-like state, facilitating spiritual connection and expression.
