I thought I knew all the instruments-

No, a Panthaleon, named after the (back then) famous virtuoso Panthaleon
Hebenstreit.
This was a (enormously large) hammered dulcimer invented by Mr. Hebenstreit and
build
by Silbermann, strung with both metal _and_ gut strings.
Hebenstreit was the highest paid musician at the Dresden court - got even more
money than
Pisendel.
