Our Didgeridoos come from small communities in Indonesia.  Our supplier works on a fairtrade basis in order to provide security of work for the craftspeople.  In the wake of the tsunami, fair trade is a very positive way to ensure the people can rebuild their lives. Orders are paid for in advance so the people do not have to go into debt to fulfill the work.

These Digeridoos are made from bamboo that is plantation grown.  They are 1.2m long, and decorated with a pyrographed design. £18.00.
