Instruments
Musical Roots & Global Inspiration
At SVARAM, we celebrate the magic of sound and the rich heritage of musical instruments from India and around the world. Our work is inspired by the ancient science of Organology, exploring how instruments are shaped, what they are made of, and how they connect people across cultures.
India is home to one of the world’s most vibrant traditions of handcrafted instruments, shaped by nature and centuries of artistic wisdom. From Himalayan flutes to desert drums and coastal string instruments, each carries a story. But many of these treasures are vanishing with modern changes, and we’re dedicated to preserving and reimagining them for today.
Our instruments are vibrant storytellers, crafted with intention, echoing the regenerative power of vibration, sound, and tradition.

Crafted Resonance and Nature’s Voice
With over 20 years of global exploration in sound, healing, and heritage, SVARAM blends deep musical research with the time-honored craftsmanship of Tamil artisans. Rooted in indigenous skill and community wisdom, each piece is shaped by hand with care, precision, and soul. At SVARAM, every creation begins with the gifts of nature, wood, bamboo, clay, stone, and metal, each chosen for its unique vibrational quality. Honoring the five elements of earth, water, fire, air, and ether, the team headed by Parasuraman Sundararasu crafts instruments that are alive with resonance and material beauty. Blending ancient traditions with contemporary innovation, our materials are not just building blocks, they are telling their stories. Tuned and transformed with skill and care, they become instruments for healing, learning, and joyful exploration. Parasu is passionate about Tamil traditional culture and its wood craft, and leads the string department since its inception.
Through sound, we invite you to rediscover your connection to nature, to creativity, and to the deeper rhythms of life.
