Native American Instruments

A living link between music and culture

Native Americans, since their ancestors, have shaped a musical tradition that spans time and generations. Each Native American flute, Native American drum, ocarina, or rainstick is more than just an object: it is an artifact that carries stories, rituals, and sacred ceremonies.

Rooted in Native American culture, these instruments embody the voices of Native American tribes—from the Cherokee to the Navajo, the Sioux to the Hopi, the Apache to the Iroquois, not to mention the Lakota, Comanche, Cheyenne, and Ojibwe.

Made using traditional craftsmanship, these instruments reflect Native American art, with influences from Mesoamerica and South America. The indigenous peoples of the Great Plains, the Great Basin, the Southwest, the Northwest Coast, and the Subarctic have each contributed their own touch: a particular rhythm, an ancestral melody, a carved motif, or a sound paying homage to the hawk, the raven, or the bison.

A diversity of sounds and traditions

In our collection, each instrument embodies Native American culture and a chapter in Native American history. You will find:

• Native American flutes, used for flute music and melodies that accompany ghost dances or powwows.

• Native American drums, essential to ceremonies and gatherings of the nations, providing a deep rhythm that connects the heart to the beating of the Earth.

• Ocarinas, whose sounds can whistle softly or call for singing during tribal rites.

• Rain sticks, whose soft sound symbolizes man's connection to nature and respect for Mother Earth.

These instruments also tell the story of the journeys of tribes and peoples: the displacement of the Indians, the Trail of Tears, the preservation of traditions in the face of the arrival of white settlers and Europeans. From the Plains Indians to the Inuit, from the indigenous tribes of the North and South to the First Nations, all share a deep attachment to Native American music as a central element of American culture and American life.

Unique pieces at the heart of culture

Owning a Native American drum means owning a piece of Native American heritage and American history. Each piece is crafted with extreme care, respecting Native American culture. The materials are carefully selected, whether bison hides, fine woods, or tribal decorations adorned with feathers and totems.

Our flutes can transport you with their soft, enchanting melodies, sometimes accompanied by Native American arts and crafts that add a visual dimension to the beauty of the sound. Powwows and gatherings of nations are the best example of this: dancers follow the rhythm of the drum, Native American warriors and women adorn themselves with traditional jewelry and clothing, and the cultural space becomes a place of communion.

Enter the circle of sacred sounds

Our collection of Native American instruments is much more than a series of objects: it is a bridge between the past and the present, between the First Nations and the contemporary world. Each instrument is a direct link to indigenous peoples, an echo of melodies historically passed down from generation to generation.

Whether you are passionate about American music, curious about Native American traditions, or simply captivated by Native American art, let yourself be carried away by the sound of flutes, the deep beat of Native American drums, or the breath of ocarinas. Feel the power of the continent's indigenous cultures, from the Mississippi River to the territories of the American tribes, and hold in your hands a living fragment of Native American culture.
