How does the Shakuhachi look like?

The Shakuhachi is a traditional Japanese bamboo Flute characterized by its long, slender body and distinctive finger holes. Typically around 54 centimeters (21 inches) in length, it features a slightly tapered shape and a square or rounded mouthpiece at one end. The surface is often left natural, showcasing the bamboo's grain, while some are finished with lacquer for added durability. Overall, its minimalist design reflects its deep connection to Zen aesthetics and meditation.
