Rose


The lute rose is carved directly into the top. It acts as both a lovely decoration and a way for the sound to escape the instrument. Lutes are hand made, and the design of a Rose is often traditional, the same design being used over and over. This pattern is a little different, and what we see here is a scan of a photograph that I took of the Rose of my Baroque Lute. Hear the Lute
