This tiny violin from JAPAN MARKET measures in at only four inches tall, but still perfectly replicates the look and feel of a life-sized violin down to the last detail.

The package comes with a little violin, a [tiny carrying case](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doll-carrier) and even a [small bow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/torch-t01). This tiny instrument unfortunately doesn't actually play any notes, but still accurately replicates the look and feel of an instrument, and is more intended for display on either a desk or shelf.

This small instrument makes a perfect gag gift for musical talents, and can also be used to show off your sarcastic sympathy as well. The next time you hear someone complaining about something that doesn't really matter, feel free to actually play a mock tune on the world's [tiniest violin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worlds-smallest-beer).
