Sanxian

Sanxian (?? ). Culture: Chinese. Dimensions: 48 7/16 × 6 7/8 × 3 9/16 in. (123 × 17.5 × 9 cm). Date: 19th century. There are two forms of the sanxian: a large one from the North, with a thin metal plate attached inside to enrich the sound, and a smaller version from the South. Like the pipa, the sanxian may accompany narrative song, changing its tuning to accommodate the singer. The bat decorating the finials of this instrument is a symbol of good fortune and appears on many Chinese objects.
