Triangle (musical instrument) form of an equilateral triangle, early instruments were often formed as non-equilateral isosceles triangles. In the early days the triangles did not have an opening and had jingling rings along the lower side. Early examples of triangles include ornamental work at the open end, often in a scroll pattern.
