Gujarāti

A sheath 65 mm long at the tip of the body of this gujarāti has been removed. The instrument has eight frontal tone holes, but no thumb hole. The tone holes are lined with metal rings. A nail under the lowest tone hole appears enigmatic. At the top of the instrument is a slender tubular support without a holding device for the lip disc. The latter is missing, as is the mouthpiece. Four decorative rings are attached to the slender bronze funnel.
