A longitudinal oval instrument body. The frame and the slightly curved back are made from a single piece of light-coloured wood. A nailed-on body top made of the same wood with a central, leaf-shaped sound hole. In front of this is a wide wooden bridge. The carved neck is modelled entirely on the European violin (1) with its slightly curved pegbox, (2) its four flank pegs inserted from both sides, (3) the scroll, (4) the fingerboard nailed to the top of the body and (5) the 'nose' on the back of the body. Four wire strings. The lower tailpiece is a rectangular, perforated metal plate, which in turn is tied to a protruding end of the body back with a double loop of twisted wire. Inside the body, between the floor and the top, there is a wooden support pole. A flat, slightly curved wooden bow stick. A bent end of the stick on the handle side. The raphia fibre stringing is passed over two bar-like projections on both sides in front of the joint. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
