This wool beater has been hand-felted slowly, one layer at a time, and finished with a whittled wooden handle shaped by hand.
The wool is naturally brown, allowing depth and variation to remain visible rather than aiming for uniform colour. Each beater carries its own subtle tonal shifts, shaped by the felting process.
I make these beaters to sit comfortably in the hand and to meet the drum with care rather than force. They are well suited to frame drums and medicine drums.
The handle is whittled from found wood, shaped slowly to follow the natural form of the branch rather than imposing a fixed design. Small variations in shape, size, and texture are part of the nature of hand-making and are embraced rather than corrected.
Each beater is unique.
Price is inclusive of postage within Australia.
