Tom founded Stellar in 1995 when by a wonderful series of events he was introduced to the Native American Flute. The experience of making flutes, honing techniques, and creatively adding to the flute- making technology has been an engaging, arduous, and fulfilling task. It has come closer than anything ever has to tapping Tom’s talents and energies to their fullest. His focus is true and he loves his work.

Matt is ” Stellar, the next generation.” Matt puts a constantly changing face on our flutes. His inventive mind has led to many important technical breakthroughs. He is also our totem carver. Together Tom and Matt make a hardworking knowledgeable, and dynamic team. Tom knows he is lucky to have a son who loves flute making.

Important Note to Customers
Our woods of choice are a combination of non-endangered North American woods and recycled woods. In the past we used rain-forest woods without understanding how harmful the destruction of the rain forests is to our one and only earth. Our wood supplier, Oby Johnson of Targo Woods in Bellingham, WA, helps us make choices that are safe for the environment.
