    Regular Pea Patch Minstrel-style Ebony Bones
    Traditional minstrel design, exotic wood...plain price
    Ebony was the Wood of Choice for Mister Bones During the Minstrel Era
    It is one of the world's hardest woods. Ebony is a dense resonant wood that holds a reputation among woodcrafters as a saw buster. In 1897 you could buy a set of four 7" ebony bones for thirty-five cents from the Sears, Roebuck & Co. catalog. Living-history performers who do Minstrel era and Civil War gigs should choose ebony minstrel-style bones for the historically accurate design. You will appreciate the sharp powerful tone that cuts through the clamor of festival crowds—and so will those curious onlookers!
    Historically Accurate Design
    The most popular woods during the Minstrel Era were Ebony and Rosewood. These exotic Ebony rhythm bones are patterned after vintage Percy Danforth Minstrel Style Bones made by the late master woodcrafter, Ray Schairer (1922 - 2011).
    Ideal for Medium or Large hands:
    Significantly wider width than vintage Danforth Bones.
