Chanter bell; Like the Rožok of the Slovak Gajdy it has a partially open lid (➺ Vrchnák), but here it seems to lack a specific name; NB: ➺ homonyms.

Details, according to Pilecki: length: 60-100 mm; Diameter of the lid: 65-80 mm, that of the opening in the lid: 25-35 mm; Made of suitable brass or copper (0,7 mm thick), nowadays [i.e. ca. 1970; ws] often removed from old boilers, which until recently were used in a henhouse or a "sałasz" [a Silesian mountaineers’ hut; ws].

Kociołek, Puszka
