The Tibetan-Buddhist instrument pairs differ from each other in details - in contrast to the Tibetan cult instruments, which are built as identical pairs. The Sahanai pair VII c 1042/1043 has seven frontal tone holes and a protruding thumb hole. The two instruments are not identical, but clearly belong together. The tops of the bodies are also each surrounded by a richly decorated brass mantle, the upper end of which is adorned with a heart-shaped turquoise border. The mantle of VII c 1042 has a length of 117 mm. It surrounds the thumb hole and the first tone hole. The spaces between the second and sixth finger holes are outlined by five heavily decorated brass rings, each with an oval-shaped set turquoise in the centre. All the stones are surrounded by a delicate brass bead band. The funnel is decorated with flower-like ornaments and more or less raised rings. The brass casing that encases the top of VII c 1043 is slightly shorter at 110 mm.

The flower-like ornaments on the somewhat narrower funnel are also present;
