About

Exotic Thai Drum with Abalone Mosaics

This rare drum, evocative of the genie's bottle from the 1960s TV comedy ""I Dream of Jeannie,"" is a striking artifact of Thai heritage. Crafted from dark wood and accented by intricate abalone mosaic inlays attributed to and used by the Thai aristocratic families, it carries a rich historical narrative with roots tracing back to the immediate post-war years—a period marked by significant cultural shifts following the Japanese invasion. An exceptional blend of artistry and history, this drum is an intriguing addition for collectors and enthusiasts of antique Southeast Asian artifacts.
