Indian Saranghi With Character Decoration. Musical Instrument
Antique Indian saranghi with character decoration dating from the beginning of the 20th century. Instrument richly decorated with traditional Indian characters even on the skin table. This string instrument has all the characteristics of the saranghi, 4 main strings adjusted by pegs on the head of the instrument, 13 sympathetic strings tuned by wooden pegs located on the side of the instrument and passing over an elephant-shaped bridge below the main strings. The strings are thin, metallic unlike the classic saranghi which is played with a bow on the main strings of large gauge. In addition, this saranghi does not have a top nut. This is why this instrument is not intended for playing but rather has the character of an object of art, of decoration. Overall dimensions: 57 cm width: 17 cm Height: 12 cm
