Josephine: 14" Deep-Frame Buffalo & Oak Medicine Drum
Meet Josephine, an empowering, deeply grounded ceremonial drum crafted for leadership, unity, and sacred circle holding. Her name derives from the root meaning "she shall add / she shall increase"—a fitting title for an ally whose purpose is to magnify harmony, expand community connection, and gather people into one heart. Held in ceremony and drum circles, she carries the steady, immovable presence of a true guide.
The Medicine & Symbolism
Painted upon her face is the spirit of the White Buffalo, crowned by an Ensō-style rainbow ring:
White Buffalo Calf Woman & Buffalo Medicine: Revered across indigenous traditions, White Buffalo Calf Woman brings the sacred teachings of peace, prayer, right relationship, and abundance. Buffalo rawhide carries an ancient, grounding medicine of perseverance, strength, and sacred duty—empowering the player to lead with humility and clear purpose.
The Rainbow Ensō Ring: Rooted in Zen tradition as a symbol of unity, wholeness, and the infinite circle of life, the rainbow ring painted on her face calls all fragments back into alignment. It visualizes the circle where no one stands higher than another, inviting harmony among human communities and all our relations across the earth.
Solid Oak Frame: Known as the King of the Forest, oak embodies endurance, protection, and sovereign strength. The heavy oak frame anchors Josephine’s energy, offering steady protection to the practitioner while guiding groups through transformative journeys.
Voice & Resonance
While compact at 14 inches, Josephine surprises everyone with an unusually deep, subterranean voice. Her frame is built especially deep, giving the thick buffalo hide the chamber space it needs to generate a powerful, rumbling low end that resonates straight through the bone.
She is remarkably resilient across all seasons and rarely requires tuning in damp or cool weather. Only on fiercely hot, dry days does she ask for a gentle misting or wipe with a damp cloth to soften her hide and release her fullest, most hypnotic voice.

Buffalo Hide & Mulberry Shamanic Frame Drum — 10", Hand-Painted
Meet Kokopelli, a joyful, lively, and compact medicine drum hand-painted with the spirit of the ancient flute player. Birthed with a durable buffalo hide and an earthy mulberry wood hoop, she is a vibrant, personal companion designed for creative ignition, manifestation, and travel. Never ‘owned’ before and kept in brand-new condition, she is ready to sing her playful, uplifting medicine into drum circles and personal ritual.
The Medicine & Symbolism
The Spirit of Kokopelli: Revered across Southwestern Native traditions as the hunchbacked flute player, Kokopelli is the harbinger of spring, abundance, joy, and fertility. In his pack, he carries seeds, songs, and dreams to plant in fertile soil. Adorned in a bright rainbow palette, he calls in creative breakthrough, playfulness, celebration, and the birth of new projects, ideas, or physical beginnings.
Mulberry Wood Hoop: Mulberry is an ancient wood sacred to transformation, vitality, and connection to the cycles of nature. It brings a grounded, warm support to the frame while keeping the drum exceptionally lightweight.
Buffalo Hide Medicine: Despite her small size, her buffalo rawhide lends endurance, steady prayer, and grounding earth power. Buffalo hide is remarkably resilient to shifting weather, holding its pitch in humid, damp, or outdoor settings far better than thinner hides.
Voice & Purpose
At 10 inches, she naturally produces a higher, crisper, and more bell-like pitch. Rather than a low body-healing rumble, her voice is bright, focused, and clearing—perfect for calling in quarters, waking up stagnant energy, and lifting the spirits around a circle.
Her portable size makes her the ultimate travel ally. She slips effortlessly into a backpack for walking medicine journeys, woodland hikes, pilgrimages, or festival campfires. She is crafted as a personal ally rather than a practitioner’s clinical tool—best suited for solitary prayer, personal meditation, songwriting, and shared drumming circles.
Specifications & Details
Diameter: 10 inches (compact, lightweight, and highly portable)
Hide: Natural Buffalo rawhide
Hoop: Mulberry wood
Artwork: Hand-painted rainbow Kokopelli (fertility, joy, song, and abundance)
Condition: Brand new / Never played

Weather Tolerance: Excellent; buffalo hide holds tension reliably across all seasons

Double-Sided Deer & Willow Healing Drum — 14", Hand-Painted
Meet Níya, an exceptionally rare, sacred double-sided medicine drum birthed specifically for profound one-on-one sound healing, energetic alignment, and deep transformational journeywork. Her name comes from the Lakota concept of Níya—the sacred breath of life, the vital animating spirit that moves through all living things and connects us to Source. Crafted with twin rawhide faces and an ergonomic top handle, she is built to hover effortlessly over the body, weaving breath and vibration into the energetic field.
The Medicine of Willow & Deer
Willow Frame: Known for its deep bond with water, intuition, and flexible grace, willow bends without breaking. It lends this drum emotional resilience and the fluid capacity to navigate shadow and light alike.
Ethical Deer Skin: Deer brings the medicine of unconditional love, heightened sensory awareness, and gentle restoration. Her twin membranes create a resonant inner chamber where sound loops, breathes, and amplifies between two living skins.
The Sacred Architecture of the Two Faces
The Practitioner’s Face: The Rainbow Heart of Harmony
Turned inward toward the practitioner, this face reflects your highest intention: to hold space not from ego, but anchored in the steady, compassionate frequency of your heart centre.
The Rainbow Spectrum: The complete, unbroken arc of light and chakra balance. It acts as an energetic prism, gathering fractured frequencies into dynamic, harmonious wholeness.
The Sacred Heart: An iridescent container of boundless compassion, offering unconditional energetic holding.
The Central Om: The primordial white sound at the origin of all vibration. Keeping you centred in divine source awareness—ensuring you hold space as a clear, hollow bone.
The Client’s Face: The Portal of Rebirth
Projecting outward into the seeker’s field pulses the raw alchemy of renewal:
The Yoni Portal: The cosmic womb of fertile darkness. It receives heavy, stagnant, or fragmented energies, softening them for cellular rebirth.
The Ouroboros: The ancient serpent eating its tail, embodying continuous renewal and the shedding of expired identities. It guides the seeker to release old cyclic patterns and reclaim their sovereign life force.
The Journey of the Sound Chamber
Between Níya’s two skins lies the resonant void—the sacred space where the breath of life travels.
When you play the drum, the Rainbow Heart and the sacred Om, anchors your energetic alignment, connecting you to source. Facing outward, the resonant vibrations meet the client's energy field through the Yoni and Ouroboros. With each strike, the balanced rainbow light rippling against your sternum travels through the willow core, infusing the client’s dark womb of transformation. The old skin falls away, the serpent meets its tail in completion, and the client emerges from the void—integrated, renewed, and restored to their own true spectrum.
Specifications & Details
Construction: Rare double-sided frame drum
Hide: Ethically sourced UK deer rawhide (twin skins)
Hoop: Natural Willow
Handle: Top-mounted ergonomic handle for seamless suspension during floor-based healing sessions

Buffalo & Oak Shamanic Frame Drum for Soul Retrieval, 14", Hand-Painted
Meet Ix-Elder, a fiercely loving, protective medicine drum birthed for soul retrieval, deep journeying, and sacred healing. Her name unites two deep currents of wisdom: "Ix"—the Mayan word for the sacred female spirit, jaguar power, and higher intuition—and "Elder", honoring the ancient, wise guardian within. She carries the luminous, untamed presence of the Unicorn spirit, offering unmatched sanctuary to those walking through the shadow to reclaim their light.
The Medicine & Sacred Artwork
Ix-Elder asked to be adorned with symbols of pure restoration—a glowing heart, wild green leaves, an arching rainbow, and a radiant golden star. Together, they channel her specific healing frequency:
Unicorn Spirit & Fierce Protection: Far from mere myth, the unicorn carries crystalline clarity, sovereign purity, and fierce protective grace. She is unafraid to descend into the lower realm landscape, guiding the practitioner steadily through dense shadows without wavering. She is an exceptional ally for soul retrieval, tracking fragmented pieces of the spirit through the dark to bring them safely home.
Healing the Sacred Feminine: Her deepest prayer is to help heal trauma, creating an impenetrable ring of safety so women can soften, release, and reclaim their sacred sovereignty. While her bond with women, priestesses, and goddesses is profound, her radiant love extends freely to men and children seeking refuge and peace.
Buffalo Hide & Solid Oak: The sturdy 14-inch oak frame lends ancient, unshakeable stability, while the buffalo hide anchors the drum with deep, primal endurance. She resonates with the living earth—at home among lush forest canopies, sunlit meadows, and the cleansing spray of waterfalls.
Voice & Resonance
Ix-Elder carries a steady, grounding heartbeat that cuts through fear and anchors profound peace in the room. She loves to be accompanied by the human voice—when you sing with her, her resonance blooms, showering pure love and light over everyone in her presence. Thanks to her durable buffalo hide, she maintains her voice reliably across diverse spaces and seasons.
Specifications & Details

Deer Hide & Ash Frame Drum, 16" Hand-Painted
Meet Rainbow Tree, a deeply cherished, sacred medicine drum birthed specifically for heart-opening ceremonial work. Created by hand with pure intention and reverence, she has carried prayers, held space in drum circles, and anchored profound healing journeys. Now, she is ready to pass into the hands of her next guardian to continue her path of service, unity, and love.
The Spirit of Rainbow Tree
On her face, she carries a hand-painted sacred Cacao tree glowing with gentle, grounding energy. She was birthed to weave the loving spirit of Mama Cacao together with the ancient medicine of the forest:
Deer Medicine: The ethically sourced UK deer rawhide carries the gentle, unconditional grace of the heart. Deer teaches us compassionate presence, soft strength, and the power of emotional vulnerability, inviting us to heal old wounds without fear.
Ash Wood Hoop: Revered as the World Tree (Yggdrasil), pale ash wood represents strength, alignment, and the connection between the earthly and spiritual realms. Ash grounds your intention while anchoring higher harmony into physical space.
Mama Cacao: As a guardian of the heart chakra, this drum acts as a vibrational bridge to unity consciousness—reminding us that we are all deeply connected with one another and all our relations on this Earth.
Voice & Resonance
Measuring 16 inches in diameter, Rainbow Tree produces a rich, resonant, warm heartbeat. Like many natural hide drums, she is sensitive to her environment and truly thrives in the warmth of summer. In cooler seasons, she simply asks for a few tender minutes beside a hearth or resting gently over a wrapped hot water bottle. Once warmed, her voice blooms into a full, hypnotic, velvety tone that immediately settles the nervous system.

True peace doesn't come from forcing reality to match an imaginary vision. It comes from learning the art of letting go, with wisdom from four traditions and a gentle meditation.
