Brain tanned leather.
The drum head circle is 16″ diameter
Made from white tail deer skin.
Price is per drum head.
Leather finishing:
With traditional brain tanning, the leather is not thinned to an even thickness, so they retain their natural density (each hide has varying degrees of thickness throughout). I lace the hide onto a wooden frame, to stretch and work it dry, making it lay fairly flat for cutting patterns. Smoking the leather is the final step, (if you would like a hide left in the white, let us know!), and I mainly use Quaking Aspen for this.
Natural Variations:
Some, but not all, hides have scars on them from the deer fighting or going under barbed wire fences. Colors aren’t completely even, as shown in pictures.
