Native Americans enjoyed many special occasions and celebrated important times in people's lives. The Northwest Kwakiutl shamans wore cedar bark costumes and painted wooden head masks to represent the birdlike friends of the Spirits.
The flutes in this series have been created to honor that almost forgotten tradition.

Created in Alaskan Yellow Cedar, this instrument has a totally hand carved and hand painted Dance Mask fetish block. The sound emitted from this flute is as beautiful as its appearance.

The feather decoration on the crown of the Dance Mask block is created with real feathers which are bound together in the traditional way - except in minature!

Available in all keys, this flute is concert tuned to a six hole extended Pentatonic scale using the very latest in Strobe technology and is ideal for players of all levels.
