sticcado

CIDE DICTIONARY

sticcadon. [Cf. It. steccato a palisade.].
     An instrument consisting of small bars of wood, flat at the bottom and rounded at the top, and resting on the edges of a kind of open box. They are unequal in size, gradually increasing from the smallest to the largest, and are tuned to the diatonic scale. The tones are produced by striking the pieces of wood with hard balls attached to flexible sticks.  [1913 Webster]
