Description
The Qanun & Santoor Stand Full Set is a height-adjustable metal santoor stand that also holds the qanun, supplied with a note stand and a soft carrying bag. It gives your instrument a steady support at home, in lessons and on stage, and packs into its own bag between sessions.
What the Full Set Includes
- Stand — metal stand on a three-legged base, with a height-adjustable column and a support frame lined with protective side pads.
- Note stand — mounts on the stand, so your music sits directly in front of the instrument.
- Soft carrying bag — for storing the stand and taking it to rehearsals and concerts.
How the Stand Holds Your Instrument
The stand rests on a three-legged base, and a central column raises the support frame to the height you need. Protective pads along the sides of the frame stop the instrument from slipping or shifting while you play, whether you are practising alone, rehearsing with others or performing. Because the instrument sits on the frame rather than on your knees, both hands stay free for playing.
A Santoor Stand That Also Holds the Qanun
The qanun is traditionally played lying flat, across the player’s knees or on a table, its strings plucked with ring-shaped plectra (mizrap) worn on the fingers, while the santoor (santur) is struck with light mallets in front of the seated player. Both are wide, trapezoid-shaped instruments of the zither family, and this stand takes either one: set the height, place the instrument on the padded frame and play. If you own both, a single stand serves your whole practice space.

Who It’s For
This set suits qanun and santoor players who want to sit at a comfortable height instead of balancing the instrument on their lap, teachers who set up an instrument for their students, and performers who need a steady support that travels with them. It is an accessory: the instrument itself is not included. For strings, mallets and other essentials, browse our santur accessories.
Care & Transport
Tighten the height adjustment and the frame before you place the instrument on the stand. After playing, lift the instrument off first, then lower the column and pack the stand and note stand into the soft bag. Wipe the metal parts with a dry cloth, and keep the pads clean so they hold their grip.
