〔53〕 Satsuma Biwa Plectrum - Boxwood (21.5cm)

Thank you for viewing.

This is a plectrum (bachi) for the biwa, handmade one by one by a wood craftsman. Weight: approx. 118g. Made from boxwood from Ibusuki, Kagoshima Prefecture. (Please consider the dimensions and weight of the bachi as approximate, as they were measured by an amateur.)

This bachi has irikawa (included bark) due to the tree's growth process, resulting in a whitish circular pattern on both sides in the center of the bachi. (See photo 4)
