Sacred Instruments

Black Maire · Rata · Pohutukawa · Ranges from 700mm to 94omm

A recent display of handcrafted Pharaoh Love Flutes — showcasing the originality and diversity of each instrument. Tuned to the sacred Egyptian pentatonic scale (D, E, G, A, B). Every flute is unique, shaped by the wood and the hand of the maker. Black Maire is New Zealand’s hardest native timber, celebrated by luthiers for its incredible density and rich, bell-like acoustic resonance. Crafting an instrument from this rare wood—often compared to Ebony or Lignum Vitae—requires masterful hand-carving and precision tuning.
