late 1800s Lion Zither made by the Anglo American Zither Company. this is a display item due to a crack in the top and a warp and separation of the body however having played guitar and built a few and met people inndoing so that there are clever people out there who can do these thing but come to think of it i have no idea how one plays a zither and i have never came across anyone who plays one. this one is complete except for 5 strings missing however all securing pegs and tuning pegs are present and all 3 brass table stands are present i dont think its in too bad of a condition given its atleast 135 years old i would t have continued to display it however i am making some room for a few more guitars any questions feel free to ask i will answer them as best i can.
