The lyra viol resembles a cross between a violin and a lute, having a large body with a sharply concave waist to allow the player to brace it over his thigh, and a narrow neck with gut frets. While the musician holds it as he would a lute, the lyra viol is played with a bow rather than a pick.

It is considered a sophisticated instrument, associated in literature with the court of Queen Morganae of the Mountain Elves.
