Introducing the Percussion Plus Honestly Made carved coconut thumb piano

From the Percussion Plus Honestly Made range, this carved coconut thumb piano, also known as a kalimba, is crafted in Bali from the shell of a coconut, which amplifies a rich and resonant sound. Placed on top of the coconut is a beautifully carved piece of wood, which has detailed pattens etched into it.

The calming sound of the thumb piano is produced by striking down the tips of the metal keys with your thumbs. The 7 notes on this instrument can be played in varying combinations to create many relaxing tunes. The size of this piano makes it great for beginners, and the gentle sound it creates is perfect for music therapy sessions.

Each instrument is hand made using traditional materials and methods. See below for more information about the Honestly Made range of instruments from Percussion Plus.

These items are musical instruments not toys and there may be small parts on or in some of them. Younger players should use them under supervision.

Tune your instrument

The keys of this thumb piano are tuneable using the metal screws holding them in place. Tighten to raise the pitch and loosen to lower - just make sure not to loosen too far. Utilise this to match the pitch in an ensemble, recording session, or just to vary your sound.
