Goat SKIN for Gaida Bag « Bulgarian Folk instruments « Home
If you need a gaida bag , please contact us first to check availability and details !
NB! We don't keep the bags in stock, for they dry out! Write to us when you need some and we'll check whether our master can get some bags for you.
Here are some sample photos which will give you an idea what gaida bags look like. As you can see, this is a processed young goat's skin. The technique of processing is an old one: the skin is soaked into a special kind of solution and dried afterwards. The bag is tied in its lower part, for this way it is easier for the skin to dry. Also, this is the first necessary step to making the bag itself.
The rest of three ends that are to be tied to the stocks remain untied.
Of course, you may order the bag with all of its ends tied to the stocks: it is up to you.
