Sea Monster Kravik Lyre - handcrafted Norwegian-style Kravik lyre with an original engraved soundboard and traditional Nordic aesthetics. This elegant plucked instrument features 7 strings tuned for rich diatonic resonance and expressive play. The bowl-shaped body with curved arms reflects the classic Kravik lyre silhouette, known from Scandinavian medieval musical traditions. The lyre is made from solid cedar (body, top, bridge) with a maple stringholder, combining visual depth with a warm, balanced tone and strong projection. Wooden tuning pegs add to its authentic look and tactile feel. Small details in carving and finish highlight craftsmanship and evoke the atmosphere of Nordic lore. Perfect for folk musicians, Viking and medieval reenactment, ritual and ambient settings, or acoustic performance in modern folk styles.
