Product Description:

This is a well made female-crafted drum by a talented shamanic instrument maker in the Northwest United States. The drum includes a hand made 18 inch cedar hoop, which is becoming a rarity in the drum making world. The cedar hoop is very light weight, which makes this drum much lighter then any of the other drums we offer. This drum is great for those looking for the depth of a 18 inch drum but need a light drum to hold for a long time. The hide is a traditional reindeer hide, typically of the origins of this drum in Scandinavia. It is made as a Northern European style pegged drum, where the hide is attached to the frame by hammering in wooden pegs. The handle of the drum is a cedar branch, easy to hold, and wonderful to look at. The maker was especially inspired by drums made in Denmark in her journey to make this drum, and she is the only makers of its type we know here in the United States. Special care is put into every aspect of this drum, but the hand made hoop, to sourcing the hide from Europe, to constructing the handle.

The frame is a hand made cedar frame that is very lightweight, making for a nice resonant drum. We want customers to know the frame can warp very slightly over time, which is very common with hand made drum frames (having a perfectly round drum is quite modern). This does not effect the quality of the drum's sound, its resonance or long term use.

The sound is deep and rich and vibrant. You can easily feel a good amount of vibration coming from the drum when you strike it. The hide withstands humidity very well, and when it does go flat it only needs 5-10 minutes in the sun to dry, which is really good for a hide drum.
