African Treasures
They originally started African Treasures because we found it difficult to locate quality African musical instruments in local stores for their drumming circles. They decided to take a trip to Africa to see if they could find the kind of musical instruments they were looking for. As more and more friends and colleagues became intrigued with their percussion instruments, they increased the number of buying trips to Africa. They found many different styles of drums, bells, shakers, balafons, kalimbas, udus and other goodies. What started as a love for African music has become a desire to share their products around the world. Then they started adding musical instruments from other areas of the world, like rainsticks, flutes, tambourines and the list goes on.
Feel free to spend some time traveling through African Treasures. They travel to Africa and handpick their merchandise to assure excellent quality and beauty. Their belief in Fair Trade practices and their relationships with the artisans is the basis of African Treasure’s mission: To provide their customers with quality merchandise at reasonable pricing. They are knowledgeable, friendly merchants and their customers like doing business with them. Rainsticks are a widely recognized folk art item. People find rainsticks sounds are very calming, peaceful, and nurturing. Rainsticks are used for enjoyment and relaxation for people ages 3 to 103. And they are gaining widespread use as a musical instrument as people learn to both hear and feel their rainstick.
