This is true whether you handcraft a prominent musical instrument or a small part of it, an additional accessory for a lyre, or a revolutionary new part to further evolve it. Our master luthiers, along with our R&D team, pay attention to even the most minor of the details, and the big picture always takes care of itself.

Description

This listing is for a hand-strap (τελαμών, in greek) made of synthetic thread and hand-knitted. A τελαμών (hand-strap) was used by the player to “secure” the lyre on his upper body and be able to hit the strings with both his hand, for advanced lyre playing.

Each Luthieros hand-strap (telamon) has 30 cm length and 2,8 cm width.

This hand-strap is ideal to be used on one our ancient replica lyres, but it can be purchased by players that own an ancient replica string instrument by other luthiers too!

Needless to say that no animal was harmed during the manufacturing process of our hand-straps.
