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 counterpart of the Sahanai VII c 1045 does not exist. VII c 1045 has seven frontal tone holes and a protruding thumb hole. The instrument is set with a heart-shaped turquoise at the upper end of the body and the bell is coated with nickel silver. The cover at the top includes the thumb hole and the first finger hole. The upper end of the body and each of the rings between the finger holes is decorated with ornamental tendrils, which are continued in the funnel. A seam runs through the comparatively small, auspicious dragon on the back of the funnel.
