Oak Drum Hoop

Stunningly made Oak drum hoops for drum making. Available in 14", 16", 18", and 20” diameter, 2.5"-3" in depth and the thickness of the hoops is 1cm. As they are all individually made items, there may be minor differences in diameter. 

These hoops are made from a single bent piece of solid Oak, with a solid join. The edges have all been rounded , with only minor finishing needed to protect drum heads from damage while making the drum.

The Oak Tree

The Oak tree holds immense significance and symbolism in Celtic traditions, embodying strength, endurance, and wisdom. Known as the King of Trees, the Oak is revered as a sacred symbol of power and sovereignty. Its towering presence and deep-rooted nature symbolize the connection between the earthly realm and the divine. In Celtic lore, the Oak is associated with the sacred groves, serving as a gathering place for spiritual rituals and ceremonies. It is believed to be a gateway to the Otherworld, where the realms of gods and spirits reside. The Oak's acorns represent potential, fertility, and the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. The Druids, ancient Celtic priests, regarded the Oak as a source of wisdom and sought its guidance in matters of divination and spiritual insight. The Oak tree's significance in Celtic traditions reflects the reverence for nature, the interconnectedness of all life, and the pursuit of higher knowledge and spiritual growth.

By journeying with a drum made with an Oak hoop, we journey with all these powers and strengths between the worlds.
