 "Drumming
connects you with your bones, your heartbeat, and your natural
rhythms. You connect with the drum by holding it close to your
heart
and letting your feelings, transfer into the drum. When we
breathe, we
all beat upon a common drum." |
 Pictured: 18" and 15" Elkskin drums. Prices Below Our Lakota maker provides Elkskin frame drums, or hoop drums, very well tied, full wrap, with lace rawhide of elk or deer, which will withstand the rigors of humid weather. Frames are made from maple. We highly recommend these excellent quality, and very reasonably priced, drums. See choice of beaters available, not included. Deer, buffalo, and steer skin drums are available. Info is available on drum frames, peyote drums, and more. For all of our drummakers, we recommend the 18" drums for a full, rich tone, easy to hold, excellent for personal use in ceremony, ritual, or music. Consider, also, a drumbag, at bottom of page, for proper care and protection of your drum. Drum Care Information We keep elkskin Lakota frame drums in stock. Prices below.

They come with a simple beater.  Can be made with either 1/2 wrap (sides
visible, as in photo,) or full
wrap (wood frame fully covered.) We recommend 1/2 wrap in order
to see the beauty of the cedar
(see photo.) These are exquisitely beautiful drums, but the wood is a
little thicker, and therefore heavier, than many contemporary drums.
