On the other side of the instrument two initials in capital letters are engraved: "M.E." e "P.L."

The instrument has six finger-holes. There are two vent-holes on the bell and one was drilled through the pipe on both sides. On the upper part of the pipe and on the upper part of the bell there are two thin metallic rings, one on each part. The sopela is decorated with three dots made with an incandescent wire and with parallel decorative rings, ridges and grooves made on a lathe. It is unsure if the stop for the pirouette belongs to this sopela. It is also possible that another pirouette that doesn't match to any other sopela from the collection, for the similarity of the making technique, belongs to this one.

Due to a serious damage, this instrument is probably a result of modification and remake from another one. The instrument has four finger-holes on the right pipe and three on the left. On the other side of the right pipe, there is a finger-hole, that served probably as a thumb hole on the original version of the instrument. Finger holes were generally made badly. At the top and in the middle and bottom of the instrument there are geometric decorations made by an incandescent wire. The upper part of the instrument is damaged and strengthened with a metallic ribbon.

Tamburica with two strings. It has eleven frets. The soundboard, the top plate covering the resonance box, is glued and fastened on the same box with 22 nails. There is a central sound hole in the middle of it. The instrument has two wooden machineheads. On the back side of the box it is written "Brest pod Učkom iz g. 1870". Probably, the writing indicates the place and time of the production of the instrument. The text has been probably written after the instrument was collected for museum's collection.

The instrument is made with two parts of wood, which is unusual, as the instrument is normally made with just one piece of wood. The suondboard, the top plate covering the resonance box, has two semicircular sound holes. There is a drawing of a Bedouin with a giraffe on it. The bridge, tuning pegs and strings are missing. On the neck there is a small rectangular mirror. The head is wide and it is decorated with curved carvings, with stylized snakes and another small mirror. The central ornament looks like a wind rose. During the making process of the instrument, a small hole was made on the back of the instrument, to check the thickness of the instrument.
