We Won't kill animals and use any animal skin.For the membrane, we use a special kind of plastic we tried many different types until finally found one which was the most durable and gave the best sound too. For the soft material, we use faux f-ur (synthetic wool), and so that it is also veganSincerely, for us and for many owners of our vegan drums, the sound you get from a plastic membrane is just as deep and sometimes even deeper, than that from any goat-skin drum. The sound is so deep and low that it is good to use for healing and sound massage.Strong drum for practice. Wicker tree symbol with wooden handle. The tree symbol helps to align the connection of three worlds: the subconscious, conscious and superconscious. In other words: Ego, I, and Big I. The sound of this drum expands the perception of the world. This gives you the opportunity to better understand yourself.It is a work of art. Beautiful craftsmanship, exceptionally sturdy, and a surprisingly deep and powerful sound. Beautiful design sounds awesome and feels like it can withstand a lot of hard work. Lots of energy. The drum is so wonderful and unique. It has a very very nice sound. You can inaugurate it in a spiritual incense ceremony. It was a very moving moment to let them sound.
