We offer a wide range of products from authentic Native American artists. Our products ship from Arizona with care. Since the various Native American artists create unique Kachinas, fetishes and other artifacts, we cannot quarantee supply until an order is placed. Sometimes when we place our order, they have already sold out. We will then email you with other selection choices.

Our selections include artists from the Acoma, Chippewa, Hopi, Jemez, Laguna, Mohawk, Navajo San Ildefonso, San Juan, Santa Clara, Santo Domingo, and Zuni tribes.

DRUMS: The round form of the drum represents the universe and its steady strong beat is the pulse, the heart, the throbbing at the center of the universe. This sound stirs us and helps us to understand the mystery and power of all things.

DRUM CARE: Drums can be sensitive to humidity. Use reasonable care when storing your drum. If the drum becomes too tight, place a wet towel inside the drum for a short time, allowing the rawhide to absorb some moisture. Let the drum dry out. If the hide becomes warped and the tone of the drum becomes flat, you can place the drum in direct sunlight or, to speed the drying, place the drum in an open oven at a very low heat. Periodically massage a natural oil into the hide to help maintain the tone of your drum.
