Description

A case for small Altai komuses and other jaw harps of a similar size. The golden eagle is praised in Altai fairy tales as a wise, strict and fair king of birds. The golden eagle is a proud, powerful bird, a wonderful hunter. It is interesting that the tongue of the komus is located in the opening of the case like the natural tongue of the bird. The image of a proud golden eagle-shonkor and the mystical archaism of the sound of the komus fill the melody of the komus with a special, sacred meaning. On the chest of the golden eagle is depicted Ulzya - the Knot of Happiness. The leather lock is fastened with a symbol of Faith - a bead.
