福建省艺术学校李禹贤同志收藏有一只形制很特别的埙。从外形看,它象一把水壶,姑且叫它壶埙。据李禹贤同志讲,这是一种流传于印度民间的乐器。我有幸观赏了这只埙,并进行了一些研究。下面我谈一点有关这只埙的情况。壶埙的外部涂以黑色大漆;就其重量和底座用木观之,埙体似乎是取木材分段镟制、粘合而成。从壶埙的外形来看,颇具印度民族风格特点,古朴大方,雅致美观。它很象印度古代人用以汲水的陶罐,惟形制小,更为秀气。若置诸博古架上,它不仅是一个可以吹奏的乐器,还是一个有历史价值的“古董”哩! Comrade Li Yuxian, an art school in Fujian Province, has a very special shape. From the appearance, it is like a kettle, let’s call it a kettle. According to Comrade Li Yuxian, this is a kind of musical instrument circulating in India. I was fortunate enough to watch this 埙 and conducted some research. Now let me talk a little about the situation. The exterior of the kettle is painted black with a lacquered paint; its view of the weight and the base of the wooden body seems to be a piece of wood made of wood and bonded together. From the shape of the pot 埙 view, quite Indian ethnic style, simple and generous, elegant and beautiful. It is very much like the pottery that the ancient Indian used to draw water, but the shape is small and more delicate. If placed on the shelf, it is not only a musical instrument that can be played, but also a “antique” milestone!
