A round wooden body shell. Skin strap tensioning of the membrane against a tensioning ring made of quadruple wire winding running close to the skin edge. Longitudinal arms diverging towards the slightly bent crossbar in the centre. Five wire strings. Tangle rings that bind the upper string ends together with strips of cloth. The lower tailpiece is a double wire loop that extends from the back tension ring to the top. A small, round perforation at the apex of the bowl arch. An angular wooden bar, rounded on the upper long sides. The two long arms are bordered by two halves of a belt strap clasped together at the ends. The outside of the bowl is blue in colour. Ten small, round membrane perforations, some of which are arranged in triangles. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
