CONVOLUTE: HARP ZITHER AND STOESSEL'S BASSLUTE, 20TH CENTURY
Convolute consisting of a bellied zither/harp zither and a Stössel’s Basslute/Stoessel's lute-mandolin, occidental. Both instruments probably from the 20th century with various signs of age and use.
BELLIED ZITHER/HARP ZITHER (below):
The normal zither of Austrian type is related to the western European zither. It has two sound holes and a "handle" or harp column (here a stylised elephant's head, on the photo below on the right) at the upper left end. The fingerboard is probably strung with three fingerboard strings and 20 chord strings.
Dimensions including handle and head: Length: 71.5cm, width: 21.5cm, height: 9.5cm.
STÖSSEL’S-BASS LUTE/STOESSEL'S LUTE-MANDOLIN (above):
The box zither (also called Stössel's chord mandolin) has 20 strings (7 of which are fingerboard strings and 13 chord strings) and bears a paper label in the sound hole with the inscription "Stoessel D. R. P. 296436; D.R.G.M. 646393 Geschm.2288". There are three buttons for attaching a carrying strap.
The Stössel lute or Stössel mandolin (Stössel bass lute/Stoessel's lute-mandolin) is named after the Cologne luthier Georg Stössel (1867-1943). According to Rolf Irle, the flat plucked instrument with its lute-like outline belongs to the box zithers category. Georg Stössel built his first Stössel lute in 1914.
Dimensions: Length: 53.2cm, width at the body: 30.5cm, width at the fingerboard 18.3cm, height: 7.5cm.
