Handcrafted of smooth bamboo, the quena flute is a legacy of the Inca. Today it is an indispensable instrument in traditional Peruvian songs. Benito Tito perforates holes of different widths to ensure a professional sound. An owl adorns the flute and its fabric case emulates pre-Hispanic textiles.

If I have one thing I love collecting, it's flutes. And this quena is by far my favorite. The instrument itself is even more gorgeous than the pictures gives it credit for, the carving is almost spiritual, and the fabric case is mesmerizing. I know it sounds like hyperbole but I cannot express how impressed I am by the quality. And the sound? Professional, warm, and deep. It actually feeeeels good to play it. Te juro que esta hermosa, sin mentira.
