Description from the seller

The trapezoidal structure of the Santur is typically crafted from either walnut or maple wood, offering durability and resonance. Its top and bottom boards may feature plywood or veneer construction, ensuring stability and acoustic balance. Positioned on the top board, also referred to as the soundboard, are wooden bridges, meticulously placed to support the tensioned metal strings. These strings, organized in groups of 3 or 4, are fastened onto nails or pins on the left side of the instrument and extend over the soundboard, resting atop the bridges toward the right side. Here, precision-engineered steel tuning pegs, commonly known as tuning pins, enable the adjustment of each string unit to achieve desired musical notes, frequencies, or pitches.

The santoor is completely handmade. It has got two wooden stick. There are signs of the earlier usage at the back side and front side. Please check the photos. The shipment will be in hard wooden export box.
