Description

From the seller
The Sanxian Chinese Three String Lute Shamisen is a traditional musical instrument originating from China. Hand-carved with intricate details, this lute features a unique design with snake skin on the body and a beautiful natural finish and a hanging bat on the wooden top. The three strings are missing. Its craftsmanship and origin make it a prized possession for musicians and collectors alike. The front side of the snakeskin does have damage, so it will need to be fixed to use the item, or it is a nice piece to display.
