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.
