Our Imitation Bear Fat is a handcrafted, all-natural flute care wax made to protect and preserve your Native American style flute — as well as leather, wood, and other natural materials. Each 2 oz tin contains our finest blend of plant-based oils and natural beeswax, providing a rich, protective coating that keeps your flute looking and sounding its best.
A little goes a long way! This smooth, easy-to-apply wax nourishes the wood, prevents cracking, and maintains the tone and beauty of your flute for years. The scent is warm, light, and slightly floral, complementing — not overpowering — the natural aroma of cedar and other tonewoods such as cherry, purpleheart, padauk, yellowheart, poplar, and pine.
Our Imitation Bear Fat is completely plant-based and non-toxic, made with natural beeswax and oil. It’s safe for use on all of our handcrafted Native American style flutes and other wooden instruments.
This wax is an excellent choice for players who want to care for their flute ethically and sustainably, honoring traditional methods without the use of animal fats. It helps seal and protect against moisture while keeping your flute’s natural tone alive.
