Today I am posting some photographs of two different Native American Wood flutes I have been making.
The First flute is made of Cherry Wood with the Block (Bird) of a Buffalo Carved from Aromatic Red Cedar, and also has 6 diamond shaped pieces of Real Turquoise I cut inlaid into the wood. I also wood burned in some designs for looks.
This Flute is tuned to the key of F#
