Length: 30 cm.

How to care for the sopilka:
Avoid fluctuations in humidity and mechanical damage (especially to the fipple, as it is the most delicate part of the sopilka). Do not leave the instrument in the sun. If a hissing sound appears, you may pour oil in so that it flows out through the fipple. You can also blow through the fipple to prevent condensation from accumulating, as it will damage the wood.
Who made it:
The sopilka was made by the folk musical instrument master Dmytro Bereziuk.
The handkerchief was designed by pelekhata project and made by block printing craftswomen Hannusia Miziuk, Sofia Melnyk.
