End-blown flute

End-blown flute, probably a qasaba or nay. The bamboo pipe, slightly curved towards the player’s right. The pipe has five nodes and is open at both ends. The top rim has a chamfered outer edge. Six fingerholes burnt out of the lower section of the front surface. Thirteen painted bands, consisting of multiple fine red lines, encircle the flute along its length. A single line in the same red colour connects the fingerholes.
