English flageolet. Nominal pitch: D (six-finger tonic).
Technical description: Boxwood; 3 sections; ivory ferrules, studs and small mouthpiece; 7 finger-holes plus thumb-hole; [lowest finger-hole double]; wind-cap. Repair History: Mouthpiece appears to have been shortened; one of the pair of lowest finger-holes has been plugged (or perhaps this is the base of a missing stud); possibly lacks plug from top finger-hole.
