What is a Kalimba?
A Kalimba is a modern version of a Mbira which is an African instrument, traditionally from Zimbabwe. The metal Tines are played with the thumbs and the sound resonates through the wood. It is also known as a "Thumb Piano".
Kalimbas benefit from using modern, western scales so are more accessible to our western ears than the traditional African versions. Many are tuned to simple scales, making them easy to get started with and to make beautiful, relaxing music straight away. They can be used for meditation, yoga and even performance.
The sound can be amplified by laying the Kalimba on a tabletop or the skin of a drum.
A small family business since 1985, Hokema produce beautiful little instruments from high quality materials. Hand made with passion in Germany.
What Our Customers Have to Say About Our Service...
"I have received the wind chime this morning and I couldn't be more pleased. I have bought this as a Christmas present for my sister to replace a very similar one I had given her as a gift a few years ago. When she was decorating her kitchen at the start of the summer, she dropped the wind chime into the sink whilst taking it down to paint her windows and it shattered. She was very upset as she was very fond of it. Unfortunately the shop that I purchased that wind chime from is no longer there, so I was absolutely delighted when I discovered your website. I would also like to thank you for the prompt delivery. I will have no hesitation in recommending Wind chimes Corner. Regards,"
"On the 11th hour my mum told me she wanted a windchime for her birthday. Fortunately I came across Wind Chimes Corner. My queries were answered promptly and I was reassured of a prompt delivery and a fine product. Subsequently a beautiful bamboo windchime arrived in perfect time. My dealings with this company from start to finish have been excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend it. Many thanks. "
"This is just a quick note to say they arrived safely today and how very impressed I am by the beautiful gift packaging...thank you so much!"
