of peace since ancient times, the wonderful olive branch lends its
spirit and
cultural significance to this very special Peace Flute.
A high quality concert or recording
flute, it is sweetly and soulfully voiced to a Gm
( A=440 ) pentatonic scale, modes 1 & 4, playing three upper
register
notes. With all of the bark left on the air
and sound chambers have been bored out intact, allowing the natural
strength and deep meaning of the tree's growth rings to remain
unbroken. This beautiful olive
tree branch flute measures 20" in length and, because of the
high density of olive wood, weighs in at 1.2 lbs--fairly heavy for its
size. Each knot has been inlaid with green
turquoise. Deer leather lacing
with green turquoise nuggets and gold plated beads secures the
bird to its nest. To help prevent wetout, the bird has been
fitted with a cedar shoe, and a drain hole, covered by the lacing, has
been designed into the air chamber. The branch for
this flute was gathered sustainably with respect and gratitude
from an abandoned olive grove within the San Marcos Creek
watershed of California.
