Description
Jew’s Harp by Dmitry Glazyrin “Mongol” (Vargan) – deep, confident sound with mythical design
The Mongol is a handcrafted melodic jaw harp by Siberian master Dmitry Glazyrin, combining elegant design with rich overtones and deep vibrational power. This instrument delivers a clear, pleasant and assertive tone, while its detailed engraving and innovative tongue-fastening technique make it stand out in both function and form.
Created as part of Glazyrin’s accessible series (alongside Skiff, Samurai, and Aria), the Mongol features a slightly elongated frame that produces a lower tone than Skiff. Its tongue is cut from a single steel plate, welded seamlessly to the frame — a method that ensures consistent response and impressive sound quality for a very fair price.
Despite its compact size, Mongol offers exceptional articulation, controlled breath dynamics, and a timbre that’s musical rather than mechanical. Whether you're playing rhythmic pulses or meditative drones, the Mongol delivers a colorful, expressive sound experience.
The front surface features mythical laser engravings, while the reverse is adorned with a delicate hummingbird pattern, adding an artistic touch to a powerful instrument. It's equally perfect as a starter model or a collectible piece for experienced musicians.
