Oboe

Wooden oboe with silicon keys and one joint. Mouthpiece chipped. In three sections, each marked 'Cahusac London', although possibly the middle joint was actually made by him. Silver keep backed with ????? , apparently ??? by well known makers, probably a band instrument. Late B- very late for its delightful pitches.
