227 cm x 20 cm x 20 cm (External diameter: 17.5-20 mm, mouthpiece internal diameter: 13.5 mm, air-flow control hole diameter: 4.5 mm, mouthpiece wall thickness: 3 mm, finger hole diameter: 4.5-5 mm.)
Cane souravli, with chamfered mouthpiece, 227 mm in length. It has 7 finger holes on the front side and a thumb hole on the back side, which are perforated using a glowing-hot tool. The area of the holes on the front side is slightly flattened, as is an area on the back side. The body of the instrument is visibly curved along the lateral side. It bears debossed, coloured, geometric decorative designs and engraved, coloured inscriptions: "ΚΛ", "19", "5ΟΥ", "1919". The twine wrapped near the mouthpiece of the instrument adds to the durability of the cane wall. It was probably added as part of a repair. The plug is missing.
