＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜span＞Welcome to Heart Radiance Flutes! I'm Thomas Heikes, and I pour years of experience and deep intention into every flute I make.

It comes with a custom handmade flute bag. 2025 batch, A single, #5. The stone inlays are mother of pearl, shattuckite, and turquoise.＜/span＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph"＞＜br＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜span＞I build this flute from carefully chosen woods: a western red cedar body for warmth and resonance, a black walnut tip for strength and tonal balance, and a maple cap secured with genuine deer hide leather ties.＜/span＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph"＞＜br＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜b＞＜strong class="editor-bold"＞The Finish＜/strong＞＜/b＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜span＞I seal all my flutes with a highly durable, food-safe finish designed to last a lifetime with no maintenance required. I use the highest-quality protective coating I can apply, carefully crafted to provide deep, lasting protection. Though it requires extra care in application, this finish allows the wood's voice to remain clear, vibrant, and full, setting these flutes apart with both durability and exceptional sound.＜/span＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph"＞＜br＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜b＞＜strong class="editor-bold"＞Flute Type & Key＜/strong＞＜/b＞＜br＞＜span＞This is my smallest single-chamber flute, not a drone style like many of my others, making it the easiest of all my flutes to play. It is tuned to A minor pentatonic, offering a bright, crisp, and lovely sound. The A key allows for even smaller, closely spaced finger holes, making it extremely comfortable and accessible, perfect for beginners or anyone looking for a light, easy-playing flute.＜/span＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph"＞＜br＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜span＞While higher in pitch than lower-key flutes, it retains a clear, resonant voice that is expressive and versatile, ideal for meditation, ceremony, sound healing, or simply exploring the joy of playing. It travels beautifully too.＜/span＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph"＞＜br＞＜/p＞＜p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"＞＜b＞＜strong class="editor-bold"＞About Heart Radiance Flutes＜/strong＞＜/b＞＜br＞＜span＞Every single aspect of my flutes I craft from the very beginning with the deepest intention of infusing love and healing into them.
