The frame, body back and neck are made from a single piece of light-coloured wood. A nailed-on wooden top. The shape of the instrument is modelled entirely on that of the European violin: (1) a pegbox with scroll and four alternating flank pegs, (2) a fingerboard nailed on with its lower section floating above the body top, (3) an instrument body laced in at the sides, (4)/shaped sound slots and (5) a wedge-shaped wooden lower tailpiece, which in turn is laced to the outwardly curved body bottom. In addition, an upright wooden support strip runs from wall to wall below the sound slots. A wooden saddle nailed on. A bow is missing. Four wire strings. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix object catalogue)
