An object is to provide a tuning-fork type piezoelectric unit in which as well as maintaining the vibration characteristics in the stationary condition when miniaturized, the bond strength is maintained, and also the frequency change for before and after a drop impact test is suppressed. The construction is such that in a tuning-fork type piezoelectric unit comprising; a container main body having a concave cross-section; an electrode pad which is provided inside a concavity of the container main body; a metal bump which is formed on the electrode pad; a tuning-fork type piezoelectric piece in which one principal plane of a tuning-fork base with a pair of tuning-fork arms extended therefrom is bonded to the metal pad by means of a conductive adhesive; and a cover which is joined to an opening end face of the container main body to hermetically seal the tuning-fork type piezoelectric piece, a surface area of an upper surface flat part of the metal bump is made smaller than a bottom surface area of the metal bump.
