According to Bărbuceanu, who fails to reveal his source, a name for a (or the) Finnish bagpipe; Not encountered as such in other sources, though a primitive clarinet (with a horn bell), called Lävikkö, is shown on the internet; NB: Interestingly the Finnish word "lävikkö" translates, rather surprisingly, as "colander" (!).
