This is an exotic sounding transverse flute, resembling the oriental 7th century shakuhachi, but with a transverse embouchure and 4 holes.

It has a rich, bassy, deep complex tone (~ 52x3 cm) tuned to E4, with A =440Hz ideal for meditation sessions. Made out of an adult piece of Pseudosasa Vulgaris, it will play well in 2 octaves. Although this is a relatively deep flute, it is suitable for medium-small hands, as the spacing between the holes is balanced. All the holes have 9-10 mm in diameter.

This flute was lightly fire treated and the interior was protected with almonds oil and the exterior with beeswax.
It also has bindings made with waxed thread. An ethnic symbol was carved into the bamboo piece.

Please note that this flute is slightly crooked and imperfect, also known as Natural! ;)

Feel free,
