Bamboo Brooms - Bamboo Comb - Bamboo Flutes - Bamboo Spoons Ladle - Bamboo Smoking Pipes

Some of these flutes are toys while others are made for professional musicians. They are made from a length of whole culm of a fairly small diameter and wall thickness. The holes on the culm wall are made by burning with a hot metal poker. The upper end of the flute is blocked either by an existing node or with a layer of resin. Some of these flutes are decorated with coloured bands and the surface is coated with a layer of lacquer.
