Celtic Instrument
The Peitoque is a Galician chest drum from the Celtic Nation in the north of Spain. Worn as a necklace the sound from the small oak drum resinates against the chest making it sing out.
This is a wonderful instrument to wear to a musical trad session, jamming with friends or out to a festival.
We first came across this instrument at the Galician Celtic music festival Ortigueira and fell in love with this simple yet resonant instrument. It is a tricky instrument to source so back in our workshop in Scotland we began to craft our own from Scottish oak.
