Description
The Flower of Life steel tongue drum pairs a meditative voice with sacred geometry on a warm bronze face. This 8-note steel tongue drum is tuned in D Kurd (D minor) — the gentle scale at the heart of the handpan world — and its bronze surface is etched with the overlapping circles of the Flower of Life.
Materials & body
The shell is cut from resonant steel and given a warm antique-bronze finish under a protective coating, so the surface keeps its glow with very little care. The Flower of Life is etched into the metal itself — never a sticker or print — so it will not peel or fade with playing.
The tongues & tuning
Eight tuned tongues are cut into the playing surface and voiced in D Kurd (D minor), a forgiving scale with no “wrong” notes — ideal for beginners. The eight-note layout is simple to learn and easy to carry. Played with the mallets or bare fingers, each tongue gives a clean, sustained tone.
Flower of Life & symbolism
The Flower of Life is a pattern of evenly spaced, overlapping circles found across many cultures — read as a symbol of connection and the underlying order of living things. On a warm bronze face it feels classic and hand-crafted. The same pattern is also offered on a black steel face — see the black Flower of Life tongue drum.
