The xun is a flute-like globular Chinese musical instrument. The musical instrument was formally produced of stone or bone, and later the instrument was manufactured of clay or ceramic. The musical instrument is analogous to an ocarina, although without a fipple mouthpiece.

The musical instrument is produced in many egg-shaped sizes. The xun is one of the oldest Chinese musical instruments. It has a blowing hole on its top and generally it has eight smaller finger holes. An analogous musical instrument is found and called ‘hun’ in Korea. The same type of musical instrument is known as ‘tsuchibue’ in Japan.
