Connect with the rhythm of tradition through the Frame Hand Drum — a beautifully crafted percussion instrument designed for comfort, clarity, and control. Lightweight, responsive, and full of character, this drum is ideal for creating expressive beats whether you’re performing on stage, teaching rhythm, or exploring sound in a meditative setting.

Description – Frame Hand Drum
The Frame Hand Drum is a traditional percussion instrument made from a circular wooden frame and a natural or synthetic drumhead stretched tightly across its surface. Designed for hand-played techniques, it produces deep, resonant tones and bright percussive slaps, giving musicians full dynamic control.
Crafted from lightweight yet durable hardwoods such as birch, maple, or oak, the frame provides structural integrity without adding bulk. The drumhead — available in goatskin, calfskin, or synthetic Mylar — offers warm, organic sound with consistent tension and projection.
Perfect for folk, world, and orchestral music, as well as sound therapy, schools, and meditation, this instrument’s versatility and ease of play make it a popular choice across New Zealand.
The Frame Hand Drum is available in a range of diameters (typically 8” to 20”), with optional tunable systems or thumb holes for comfort and pitch control. Its minimalist aesthetic suits both traditional and contemporary musicianship.
