The medium Alo (AH-loe) bell is the most common size as a stand-alone bell, producing a full, melodious single note when struck with the lightwood beater. This standard size Alo bell is available as part of a set and is sold individually. The Alo bell originally comes from Nigeria, but is also used traditionally among the Ewe of Ghana and Togo (as a single-tone Gankogui bell). The sound is also appropriate for Afro-Cuban and Latin drumming music where a cow bell might otherwise be used. Wonderful sound and built to last. Covered by our standard money back guarantee, these bells feature:
- 8in tall bell, 11in tall
- hand forged from recycled iron by expert blacksmiths in Togo
- bright, sustained tones sing out over the ensemble
- durable construction, built with quality of sound as priority
- light-wood beater included
- due to the nature of the crafting process and materials used, each bell will have its own pitch and sound quality
- African-made product from cultural artisans supported by Africa Heartwood Project
