Native style, six hole flute in the key of low C minor. Hand crafted from a solid blank of lovely and nicely grained cypress wood, with fully-tenoned caps of Osage orange and highlighted with rings of walnut. It is finished with many coats of a hand rubbed, natural oil and wax finish. The stylized bird is crafted of yellow heart with a Western red cedar core and sits atop an inlaid yellow heart nest. It also features my signature hand burned morning star with inlaid walnut center. The block is secured with laces of tobacco brown deer hide.
This lovely flute has a warm, inviting character, very haunting and mellow. Cypress is an excellent tone wood and has a big resonant, warm, and round voice that stirs the soul. The overall length is 30" with a 1-1/4" bore. The flute weighs 11 oz, which is very lightweight considering the size of the flute, so great for a player that wishes to play a low flute but has issues with heaviness. It has offset finger holes, but a fairly wide spread and may not be suited for beginner players, as this one will take a bit of muscle memory. The flute comes provided with a hand sewn fleece draw string bag for storage and protection. Shipped Priority Mail 2-day with insurance and signature required.
