Hmm...
There are preserved pictures of nyckelharpor in several Swedish churches from about 1350. So about 600 years...
The chromatic nyckelharpa, as in the pictures, evolved during the 19:s by the Swedes August Bohlin and Eric Sahlström.
This particular nyckelharpa is build by Lars Hallengren after Sören Åhker.
I know that the nyckelharpa is not a violin... but it's safer to take pictures off a nyckelharpa standing "untraditionally".

You know, I used to play violin since I was 5 - no lie. I never really liked it, and I wish I started the Nychelharpa at that age! Fantastic instrument!!!!

@LuxMixolydisk Det var godt svaret!

Can you play violin music on this, or are they in different keys?

You know an instrument is good when it has never been made mainstream, or an electric version has not been made.

Too short! I want to know more about this instrument.
Måste vara ett helvete att stränga om dendär saken.
