Materials & Craft

Handcrafted in Matun Village

Every QiaTuo drum starts as wooden staves — shaped, rounded and joined by hand — then headed with cowhide or buffalo hide our workers cut by hand.

The small marks left by that work are not flaws. They are the proof that a person, not a machine, made your drum.

Good to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers before you send an inquiry — the questions wholesale buyers ask us most.

What types of hide do you use on your drums?

Two hide lines: yellow cowhide on our war and flat drum line, and water buffalo hide on tanggu, waist, chest, huapen, sanjuban and team building drums. Both are natural full-grain hides, hand-cut and sun-seasoned — slight color variation between heads is normal.

Do you offer OEM and ODM service?

Yes. We customize logos, paint schemes, sizes, stands and packaging. For OEM projects, quotations and export documents are all handled in-house.

What warranty do I get?

Every QiaTuo drum carries a one-year warranty covering shells, heads, hardware and stands. If something fails under normal use within a year, we make it right with your next order.

Where are QiaTuo drums actually made?

In Matun Village, Yanshi, Luoyang — the village where around 80% of China's large drums are crafted by hand. Drum-making has been the local trade here for generations, and our workshops sit inside that tradition.

How do wholesale prices work?

Pricing is quoted offline, one-to-one. Send an inquiry with sizes and quantities and our sales manager Jack Tang replies within 24 hours with a formal quotation. No online payment, no fixed price list.

Can schools order age-graded drums for classrooms?

Yes. Our early-learning line runs from age one upward across nine sizes, with an age-to-size chart built for classroom and preschool purchasing. Mixed percussion bundles with mallets, sashes and shakers are available.
