Traditional Irish Wooden Bones - Rosewood
Step into the pulse of Irish music with these handcrafted Traditional Wooden Bones made from premium rosewood—a tonewood celebrated for its rich resonance, elegant grain, and durability. A staple of traditional Irish rhythm sections, these bones are expertly carved to produce that unmistakable percussive “click” that cuts beautifully through sessions, reels, and jigs.
The bones are curved and contoured for comfort, giving players—whether seasoned trad percussionists or newcomers to the session scene—excellent control, fluid movement, and articulate response. Rosewood’s natural density and grain structure delivers a crisp, balanced tone with plenty of projection, making it ideal for both indoor sessions and outdoor performances.
Each pair is slightly unique, with subtle variations in colour and texture that reflect the organic beauty of the material. These bones are not just rhythm tools—they're instruments with character and heritage, and they belong in the hands of players who honour the tradition and push it forward.
