It consists of two drums: the bayan (left-hand drum) and the dayan (right-hand drum). The bayan is larger and typically made of metal, such as brass, nickel, or aluminum, although it can also be made from reddish-brown clay or ceramic. Its top layer is made of leather and features a round black patch composed of flour, iron filings, ferric oxide powder, and starch. The bayan can produce two distinct sounds.
