This French Army drum reflects the very drums that once marched with French troops during the late Renaissance and early Bourbon period, from the Wars of Religion through the reign of Louis XIV.

This drum offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of France’s military history, crafted with the same dedication and craftsmanship that have stood the test of time.
