What is it?.................Identified.


Thanks to Ged (Peacehavens) in the UK for identifing the mystery object. It is indeed a Jews Harp, a musical instrument. Here are a couple of pics from the web. Its held by the round end with the 'forks' to the lips, you either hum or blow through the forks while plucking the middle bit.

  1. WOW! That is one very unusual instrument. Check out how it is played on the You Tube clips - it's the players jaw bone that amplifies the sound....
