Dan Moi, which translates as “instruments of the lips”, are traditional jew’s harps originating from the Meo (Hmung) people of Vietnam. They are made of thin brass and come in a bright clothed box. Nowadays, they are commercially made, hence more durable and precise than the traditional and hand made ones. The demand for Dan Moi is rapidly increasing since they are perhaps the most versatile jew’s harp available :
