Chimu Flute

A wonderful Chimu reed flute from Peru, ca. 1100 – 1450 AD. It is 10-1/2” long and is masterfully incised with a variety of geometric designs of unknown meaning. This instrument is made from Carrizo, a bamboo-like reed, parts of which are used in shamanic healing rites, with the heavier stems made into ceremonial flutes. An exceptional example in excellent condition.
