Zūrnā

This Zūrnā has eight frontal tone holes, a thumb hole and a slender funnel. The fork insert and reed support are missing. The Georgian double-reed instrument was probably made around 1900. It came into the private collection in the 1980s as a gift from a famous duduk virtuoso from Tiblisi, whose grandfather is said to have played it.
