Rowan Drum Beater

Our drum beaters are handmade with individually selected and cut pieces of Rowan wood, with a wool stuffed leather beater head

The Rowan

The Rowan is sourced from near Drumkeeran, Co. Leitrim, Ireland, within walking distance of ancient sacred sites. An offering is given to the trees for each piece that is cut and prayers are sung to the forest.

The Rowan tree holds deep symbolism associated with protection, intuition, and magical abilities. In Celtic folklore, Rowan is revered as a powerful protective charm against evil spirits and enchantments. It is believed to possess the ability to ward off negativity and offer a shield of safety. Rowan's connection to intuition and the unseen realm makes it a tree of divination and mysticism. It is also associated with creativity and inspiration, particularly in the realms of poetry and prophecy. The vibrant red berries of the Rowan tree symbolize vitality, life force, and transformation. Rowan embodies the qualities of protection, insight, and spiritual power in Celtic mythology and traditions.

Sustainability

The wood for this beater stick is gathered by hand, with prayer and ceremony and offerings to the land. We are responsible in our harvesting, making sure that the tree and the forest can continue to thrive. The beater head is crafted from leather offcuts, so colours may vary slight from the picture, and filled with wool. All of the materials used in the crafting of the beaters is honoured during the process of being made, and the beater is blessed with incense to welcome it into being once it has been made.
