A replica of the oldest known instrument.
The 5000-year-old Sumerian “Silver Lyre of Ur”, along with several other musical instruments, was unearthed in southern Iraq in the 1920’s by the British archaeologist, Sir Leonard Woolley.
Very little of it was left after five millennia, but careful research revealed that the soundbox was entirely made of silver, not wood overlaid with a sheet of silver.
The soundbox of this reproduction of the Silver Lyre is made of metal, which gives the instrument a timbre that is probably comparable to the original artifact.

@DeWayfarer you are right. A dulcimer doesnt really fit. Lyre is way better.

@swirlie you're thinking lute. Yet the lyre was before the lute. Arguably the parent of harp and lute. Some harps are called harp-lyres.

Nah, piano strings are hammered. A harpsichord is more of a manual harpsichord
