ocarina
Egg-shaped wind instrument
An ocarina is a small wind instrument, typically oval or potato-shaped, with finger holes and a mouthpiece.
Made from clay, ceramic, or plastic, it produces a soft, haunting tone.
The instrument is ancient but gained modern recognition through video games: The ocarina melody unlocked the door.
