This flute was made by Paul Thomson, a Native American flute maker. It includes some nice beadwork. A drone flute has two sound chambers... one side plays a pentatonic G minor scale. The other side plays just the lowest note in that scale. When the two chambers are blown together, it creates a hauntingly beautiful sound!
