💰 What’s It Worth?
After a little research, I found that Antonio Canella ocarinas typically sell for $30 to $100, depending on their condition and tuning.
Some pristine or vintage models can go for $120 or more—especially those with well-preserved stamps or unique finishes.
I paid $1 for mine. Yes, it has some wear. But it’s absolutely playable and a fantastic example of traditional craftsmanship.
🎶 Why Ocarinas Are So Unique
There’s something unmistakably nostalgic about the ocarina’s sound.
It’s soft, warm, a little mysterious—less sharp than a recorder, and more relaxed than a flute. You don’t just play it… it takes you somewhere.
And it’s a conversation starter. People either ask:
“Is that from Zelda?”
or
“Is that an ocarina?”
Either way, they’re not wrong.
