Here is a very good pair of original, period wooden drumsticks as would have been used by musicians during the middle to late nineteenth century. These specimens are thick, heavy and turned entirely of what appears to be rosewood or mahogany. Each of these cylindrical, musical wooden accoutrements measures 17” long and has a butt end diameter of 5/8” which tapers to a finial-shaped tip 3/8” in diameter.  Both drumsticks have acquired a pleasing, brown patina over the years. Sticks exhibit very slight scratches and light scuffing from use but surface is smooth and hard.  Exhibits no cracks or splits. No maker’s mark visible. A fine set of drumsticks.
