stained white ash zither
Look: A muted crescent moon picked out with whisping lines of silvery gilt rises behind the darkly stained image of a palace upon the front panel of the zither. Skillful use of black and grey dyes have lent a realistic appearance to the building, making it seem as if it truly were awash in the wan hues of moonlight.

Bard Recall: The zither is a flat box-like instrument shaped like a truncated triangle. It's strung horizontally in 24 courses over two separate bridges with the strings attached on one side by hitch pins and on the other by small tuning pins. The soundboard has two holes that lend a rich resonance and tonal quality to the instrument's sound.
