TXALAPARTA
Instrumento de percusión hecho de madera
Instrumento musical creado desde la reinterpretación funcional de algunas herramientas de trabajo utilizadas en la elaboración de la sidra: la manzana era golpeada con las makilas encima de unos tablones para extraer jugo, convirtiendo la acción en ritmo a través de la txalaparta, de sonido muy particular, hondo, profundo y prístino que lo hace si alguna vez se ha escuchado, perdurable en la memoria.

TXALAPARTA
The wooden percussion instrument
The txalaparta is more than a musical instrument, it originated as a means of long distance communication and stood out in its category for its capability of producing a very deep, pristine and particular sound, a sound which once heard, lingers in one’s memory.

TXALAPARTA
Instrument de percusion fait en bois
La txalaparta, plus qu’un instrument musical fut, a l’origine, un moyen pour se communiquer à distance, élevé en catégorie grâce a son aptitude pour créer un son très particulier, profond et primitif qui le rend, si jamais on l’a écouté, perdurable dans la mémoire.

Egurrezko perkusio instrumentua
Sagardogintzan erabilitako lanabes batzuei emandako erabilera berrietatik sortutako musika tresna da: ohol batzuen gainean sagarrak makilekin kolpatuak ziren, horrela zukua lortzeko eta ekintza hau erritmo bilakatu zen, txalaparta sortuz. Soinu berezia du, sakona, handia eta jatorrizkoa, eta honek, behin entzunez gero, oroimenean hilezkor bihurtzen du.

FAQ
Our figures are crafted using three materials: a white lacquered steel pedestal, an oak base and finally de methacrylate silhouette, which is the most delicate part of the figure. We recommend carefully extracting it from the box by means of the steel pedestal, never do it by pulling the silhouette.
For the figure cleaning and care you must keep in mind a few details: Both the white lacquered steel pedestal and the oak base are pretty easy to clean, however, the methacrylate silhouette requieres to be treated with care if you want to maintain its luster. Simply use a soft cloth or apiece of cotton, moisten it with water and swipe it through the silhouette gently. Depending on the figure, it might be more or less delicate, for which we recommend not applying too much pressure in order to prevent any kind of damage. You can wipe the rest of the figure using the same cloth and adding a small amount of neutral soap if you find it necessary. If you are dusting the dust off with a duster, remember to swipe it softly over the methacrylate silhouette.
