The Psaltery is an ancient instrument that began as simply a board with gut strings stretched between pegs. It was played by plucking with either one’s fingers or a “plectra”. Later versions, including the one depicted on this stein, were typically in the form of a hollow box (or “soundboard”) and metal strings.
Price Range: $75-$100
