♠ Welcome to Ace Ocarinas! ♠
My name is Daniel Peden and I have been making ocarinas for about 5 years now. I started playing the ocarina when I was 15 with a small 4-hole English Pendant ocarina from a Renaissance Festival. I quickly learned to play it and over time learned to play just about every type of ocarina under the sun. As I was learning to play more complicated music and needed more specifically built ocarinas it was starting to get expensive. Most of the ocarinas online are made from molds and were not designed to my specific needs.
Having history in grade school with pottery I decided to try and make my own by hand. Once I got good at making ocarinas and I started to build a surplus of them I decided to start selling them. I remembered the large absence of unique ocarinas on the market and decided to make all of my ocarinas by hand so that each one would be unique. I make ocarinas as a hobby / part time job now and I am always trying to make something new and unique so that my customers can have an ocarina that is truly one of a kind.
Here you will be able to follow our current progress on our ocarina batches with the Workshop page, request certain types of ocarinas or your own design ideas be made with the Requests page, and keep up to date on anything big going on such as new ocarina projects or live events we are participating in with the news section below on this page. We also have Fingering Charts to better show how to play ocarinas and help new players learn their first songs. We hope you find what you are looking for and if you have any questions feel free to contact me with the forum at the bottom of this page.

Current Projects / Events
I have been working on a specialty order for a large Bass ocarina made to look like the classic Fiehn ocarinas. Here is the latest one. It is currently the largest ocarina I have made so far. It is tuned and needs sanded a bit to smooth it out but aside from that once it is fired it is pretty much done.
