Beautiful hand-made Irish hardwood 4-key flute. Made of gorgeous rosewood with silver fittings, used gently and infrequently, and cleaned diligently after each play. Sweetheart sells these flutes for $1,095.00 new, and their padded cases sell for $95.00. I am asking $800 for both flute and soft case.
I’ll be transparent and let everyone know that I don’t know a lot about the flute community, so questions are welcome and I’ll answer anything as best I can. PayPal is preferred payment, item ships from WA with tracking + insurance within 2 business days of confirmed payment.

I have an earlier 3 key model of this flute with faux - ivory ferrules. It is a very light flute, easy to fill, good projection, with spot on intonation. A much superior instrument to his maple introductory flutes. Would this be an accurate description of yours Juxtapose ? I imagine there’s every reason to believe it would. Owen.
Sounds right, thanks. I love the sound of it; it is rich but not too full, gentle but not too warm. My camera phone doesn’t really do the color justice either.
