Bear Hand Drum Tunable 18 Inch

Bear Hand Drum 18 Inch
Artist: Ben Wright

In this striking Four Directions Drum, each of the cardinal directions is represented by colored ribbons in red, yellow, white, and black which also represent the peoples of the world. Drumming is beneficial to us on many levels including reducing stress, elevating our mood, and helps us get back in touch with our ability to think creatively. Drumming is also used traditionally to help us reconnect to our center and the earth, as well as helping us move through blockages and process buried emotions.

Bear is an old and powerful totem. It reminds you that you possess great strength within yourself and brings prosperity and protection. In animal lore, bear represented both the moon and the earth,possessing great healing wisdom.  Keywords are healing, courage, and strength.

Each hand painted drum arrives with its own nylon case, drum beater and tuning chuck, which allows to you make adjustments to the frame that tighten or loosen the natural goat skin head. This makes it easy to take this drum anywhere since you can loosen it for dryer climates, or tighten it for more humid climates, allowing it to always maintain tone. 

Please note that eventually paint may wear with prolonged use over time. This is natural, and is viewed as acknowledging impermanence and the passage of time.
