Hand drum made of Deer and Ash frame is a very powerful and versatile drum that is made with an eye for quality. The 18" Deer drum has a distinct and poweful voice that you can feel as much as you can hear it. It is the perfect combination between size and sound without being a heavy drum.
Deer is a thicker hide than the others, and therefore weighs a little more. We recognize the sound of the deer drum from the North American ceremony drums which has a somewhat harder and robust sound.
The 20" Deer drum is the largest deer drum I make. This is the drum for you who want to drum with a lot of power. The Deer drum song can both bade you with its gentle voice and bring the thunder and vibrations needed for raising the energy in the ceremony.

Give your drum a beautiful touch with beautiful feathers, beads and leather laces. In the package you get beads in different sizes, small and large feathers, and eather cord (blue, brown, white or green depending on stock).
Leather handle:
Beautiful and nut-brown laces of nappa leather from Deer are wrapped around the four directions of the handle. Firstly, this gives a very beautiful handle that is soft and comfortable to hold, especially if you play for longer periods of time. In addition, it also provides an aesthetically pleasing center for the drum's four directions. Design, shape and colors may vary from the images.
The animals from which the skin comes live in the open and are felled in the open, mainly for food.
