DIY Shamanic Drum Kit (S-size, brown)

Have you been searching for a shamanic drum that performs reliably regardless of the weather? Kuuvi answers this need: it's a companion that travels with you on sound journeys with certainty and consistency.

Natural patterns have etched themselves into Kuuvi's skin, opening a calm, grounded space for the player. Kuuvi invites you into a rhythm felt more in the body than heard by the ears; it's a drum that pauses with you and moves at exactly the pace your inner spirit guides.

This magnificent, large-sized shamanic drum with excellent sound is handcrafted in our Lapland workshop. This unique drum conjures a meditative atmosphere with its deep sound. Its tone quietens the mind and relaxes tense muscles down to the cellular level. You can use the drum to deepen your meditation, create an enchanting atmosphere in group settings, or help clients relax during treatments.

The adjustment mechanism of the drum makes it a reliable companion. Even in humid summer weather, you won't be caught out, as you can easily adjust the skin tension using the inner tube. This is a particularly handy feature when you need an "always-ready" drum for healing work or performances. The adjustment mechanism operates simply through a car tyre valve. Note! We use a car valve, which is easier to adjust. An ordinary bicycle pump won't work with this valve.

Nature and caring for it is very important to us, which is why we source the drum's materials primarily from local, responsible suppliers. The frame is bent from double birch plywood, which is treated with wood wax. The shamanic drum's skin is Finnish reindeer hide, either natural or dyed in stunning colours with water-based stain. The drum's handle is made from wood gathered from the forest, shaped to fit the hand comfortably and bound into a cross with cord. The handle provides an excellent playing grip on the drum.

Delivery includes:

• Drum (diameter 51 cm, weight approximately 1 kg)
• Drumstick (colour and shape may vary from the image)
• Comprehensive care instructions

N.B. An adjustable drum is a functional solution, but even it won't sound in extreme conditions. Also note that pumping air in—tightening/loosening—stretches the drum skin and over time diminishes the skin's playing qualities. Oiling keeps the skin supple. For long-term storage, it's worth releasing the air from the tube so it doesn't unnecessarily strain the skin.
