Whistle your days away with the handcrafted Quena Flute.
The Quena flute is completely handmade and painted by artisans from Huancayo, Peru. The Quena flute is also called the shepherd's pipe or shepherd's flute. This piece boasts a deep burgundy color and has no mouthpiece. The idea is to blow a very narrow but rapid stream of air onto the edge at the bottom of the notch. Instructions on how to play the flute are included.

I had been looking for a flute as a last piece for decorating. I thought the flute was red, but it's actually purple. I was disappointed in the color, but kept it anyway since it did blend. For the price, I was pleased.
