Beaters

These are made from Hazel Willow Ash , Any decent wood with a good Hard pith. Soft leater is used for the head and usually a simple finish . We do have some more elaborate beaters with decoration of featers bone or beading.

We make our rattles from Rawhide of thr red deer normaly,using small stones to create the rattle sound. Each Rattle is usuallyPainted with a pattern or Medicin Animal, Finished with simple beading , Fur and/or feathers

Each Rattle dictates it's own design and no two Rattles are exactly the same


We also make a rattle and beaters combined so you can drum and use a Rattle at the same time


Rattles and beaters can be made to order.
