What You’ll Receive: One Navajo Made Native American Buffalo Antler Drum with your choice of drum beater
Product Description:
These Navajo Native American frame drums are handmade by a Navajo elder and drum maker in the Black Mountains of the Navajo Nation in Arizona. He is an artisan whose drum creations are inspired by traditional beliefs, especially the belief that one’s creativity is a reflection of nature. Spirit to him is the true impulse of his artistic gift as evident in his workmanship, meaningful symbols, and coordination and combining natural materials from his native land in North America. It is his hope that by sharing his talent, others will discover their own beat, rhythm, and relationship to all creation.
These drums are exceptional, not only in their design, but as well their resonant power. Each drum includes his signature circular tie, and elk antler for the handle. The elk antler creates a very firm grip for the holding the drum. The resonance of the drums is pristine.
As with our Traditional Native American drums, we recommend the 18" size drums, for a full, rich tone, easy to hold and so are selling them exclusively in 18". These drums are made with buffalo hide. The hoops are hand made cedar, which are lighter to hold than other 18" drums we offer.
