Fife

Group of three musical instruments, two fifes and one flute. Fife like these examples are small transverse flutes, similar to the piccolo but louder due to their smaller bore. Both the fifes are made of wood, they have seven fingerholes and both have brass rings at each end, but one is made of dark stained boxwood and it is slightly smaller than the other and it consists in two parts connected together, while the other fife is made of light coloured wood and it consists in just one part. Both of them have no marks. The third musical instrument is a broken flute made of stone, with seven finger holes and no key.
