Introducing the UNOKKI 17-Key Kalimba Thumb Piano
Also known as a mbira, likembe, sanza, thumb piano or hand piano, the 17-key kalimba is a hand-held African instrument that's easy to master. It’s a member of the idiophone (vibration) family of instruments and produces a sound that’s similar to that of a harp. UNOKKI’s kalimba is lovely enough to serve as a unique home décor item and yet suitable as an instrument for professional performing or recording musicians.
