Mini Handpan
Our Mini Handpan is made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 43 cm. Its smaller size makes it easy to play, especially for individuals with a smaller stature. Although the number of tones is limited, the Mini Handpan still delivers the warm, resonant sound our handpans are renowned for.
Stainless Steel Handpan
Our Stainless Steel Handpan is made of high-quality stainless steel. This material provides the handpan with an exceptionally bright sound and long resonance, making it ideal for a meditative and calm playing style. Additionally, the material is highly rust-resistant and requires minimal maintenance.
Ember Steel Handpan
Our Ember Steel Handpan is crafted from a specially treated type of stainless steel. This unique Ember Steel combines an exceptionally warm sound with an extraordinary long resonance (sustain). It is particularly suited for a calm, meditative playing style. Like Stainless Steel, Ember Steel is rust-resistant and low maintenance, but due to its exclusivity and more time-intensive production process, the delivery time may be longer.
It is important to realize that everyone has their own taste and that the only thing we can advise is to listen carefully to the sound videos and to choose the scale and model Handpan that appeals to you the most. You can't make a wrong choice!
We make two types of Shamanic Drums: the Easytune Shamanic Drum and the Traditional Shamanic Drum. Both models are available in two variants: with fur (the fur is still on the skin) and Rawhide (with a bare skin). All models are available in different sizes.
Easytune Shamanic Drum:
The Easytune Shamanic Drum features an inflatable ring that allows you to easily adjust the tension on the drumhead with a small air pump. This system enables you to tune the drum yourself and modify the sound to your preference, without the need for complex techniques. It's perfect for those who want flexibility in the tone or are looking for a specific vibration or frequency that feels right. Additionally, it prevents the drum from needing retuning due to external factors like temperature or humidity changes.
Traditional Shamanic Drum:
The Traditional Shamanic Drum is crafted using ancient techniques, without a pumping system. The tension on the skin is preset and remains stable for a long time, although external factors such as temperature and humidity can influence the tension. Changing the tension requires more effort. This can be done in two ways:
- Heating the drumhead: By warming up the drum, for example near a campfire, in the sun, or by holding the drum against your body, you can temporarily increase the tension and influence the sound. Be careful, read more about it in our blog.
- Moisten the drum skin and retune: By re-moisturizing the skin and retuning the drum, you can adjust the tension for a longer period. Do not attempt this on your own if you're unsure how to do it. Please seek advice before proceeding.
Which one do you choose?
- Choose the Easytune Shamanic Drum if you're looking for convenience and want to adjust the tension and sound of your drum regularly.
- Choose the Traditional Shamanic Drum if you value an authentic playing experience and don't need to change the tension frequently.
No matter which variant you choose, both models are carefully handcrafted and offer a beautiful sound.
Constellation Series (28cm)
The Constellation series has a diameter of 28cm and is available with 8 or 9 notes. This drum is characterized by its warm and deep sound. It has a long resonance, which allows the tones to blend beautifully. The G-Major and Lydian scales create an energetic and euphoric (joyful) tone. The A-Minor scale has a relaxing and melancholic (meditative) quality, while the AkeBono scale produces a sound that is both relaxing and mysterious.
Zephyr Series (36cm)
The Zephyr series has a diameter of 36cm and features 9 notes. This drum is characterized by its clear and dynamic sound, where each note stands out distinctly. The Equinox scale includes both minor (B-Minor) and major (C-Major) components, offering both relaxing and melancholic tones, as well as euphoric and uplifting sounds.
Echo Series (42cm)
Our largest model is the Echo Series. With a diameter of 42cm and 9 notes, its larger size allows for the production of deep, full tones that are perfect for a soothing experience. Due to its size and sound, this Tongue Drum plays similarly to a handpan. The D-Minor scale is particularly versatile, ideal for emotional and meditative playing, creating a deep, introspective atmosphere. The C# Amara scale offers not only a meditative sound but also uplifting elements that bring a positive, vibrant energy to the performance.
It is important to realize that everyone has their own taste and that the only thing we can advise is to listen carefully to the sound videos and to choose the key and model Tongue Drum that appeals to you the most. You can't make a wrong choice here!
