The dholak is a classic double-headed hand drum, handcrafted from premium dried mango wood or sheesham (Indian rosewood). It features two drumheads of different diameters, allowing for both high and low pitch sounds. The smaller head (for sharper notes) is usually made of goat skin, while the larger head (for bass) is made from buffalo skin. Traditionally, dholaks are rope-tuned or bolt-tuned for pitch adjustment, and commonly used in Indian folk, devotional, wedding, and classical music. Surface decorations, solid wood construction, and sturdy tension rings or ropes contribute to rich, resonant sound and long-lasting durability. Sizes typically range from 16 to 19 inches in length, and these drums are favored for ceremonies, group performances, and vibrant musical gatherings.
