369,00

The kalimba Daeira is magical at first glance.

Daeira is made of walnut sapwood, with the core wood present on both sides of the instrument. This allows us to imagine how the tree grew. Another interesting feature of this kalimba is the branching structure visible on the front side of the instrument. Thanks to this phenomenon, the wood structure is strong and interconnected, similar to the formation of flamed wood.

Daeira is a Kalimba with a deep meditative sound, a pronounced vibration, and a long resonance. It is exceptional for its intense deep tones and clear, pure highs. It is a suitable instrument for relaxation, meditation, sound baths, and musical accompaniment.

Kalimba Daeira is tuned in the diatonic tuning of D# minor, which is also suitable for intuitive playing.
With a size of 17 x 14 cm, the kalimba fits perfectly in the hands of an adult.
Daeira has 19 tones, it is made in a two-row design, which is comfortable even for beginners or players with thicker thumbs.

You will get a practical pouch for tool transfer, lifetime service and lifetime warranty as a gift.
The kalimba is made in one piece, ready for immediate shipment.

Body of instrument

Once in a few months, our grinding of wood suddenly holds our breath. This happens when Marek sees a place on a dusty board where a special kalimba is born. We mark it and place the form in such a way that its beauty can excel the most in the future. This is based on the life story of a tree which has been reflected on the structure and color of the wood. We are strongly influenced by the Tatra nature in which we create and live. Every day we are captivated by mountain peaks, the power of wind, the acuity of the first sunbeam and the intensity of morning dew. We wish that this powerful experience we feel through nature every day was written into every single instrument that goes through our hands. That’s why we make our kalimbas manually, from drying itself to the last surface trimming and finishes. We gradually collect these beauties all year round. After four years of natural drying, the wood is acclimatized in the workshop for a few more months to make it as stable as possible. When it’s ready, we start production. The surprise comes with the very conclusion, when only one of the three kalimbas plays to meet our expectations. Subsequently, we look for the tuning that fits the instrument the most. You can celebrate the result of our work together with us. We introduce you a special Tatra edition of designer kalimbas.

Sound tuning

Maybe you remember the “do re mi fa so la si do” exercise from the music classes at your elementary school. It’s an indication of the seven tones in a diatonic scale. If you’ve just hummed this in your mind, you sang one octave. Ordinary, we tune these kalimbas to G major. This kalimba is tuned in special way – in diatonic D# minor tuning.
