WTS - Rare Silver 3 Part Copeland Low D High D Set

Post by Zeildritch »

Folks,

I'm *thinking* of selling my prized golden era 3 Part Silver Copeland Low D / High D Set.

I have a fair idea what brass versions go for, however i'm open to sensible offers on this set.

Please PM me for further details, to discuss, or to make an offer.

(Also open to trades for Uilleann Pipe / Chanters)

When you say Rare Silver do you mean sterling silver or nickel silver?

Rare as in there were less than 10 of these made. Brass was an easier material to work with, and more cost effective.

I've the whistles left with a jeweler to test if it's Stirling.

Please PM me with questions.

I think they are very interesting. I wonder if the 'rolled' end treatment on the bodies is something special, maybe for silver? There aren't many around like that I don't think. What year were they made, do you know?

Without contacting Michael with the serial numbers, I believe these were made in the later 90's

I have a sterling silver low D Copeland. I always rather wanted a high D to match, but they're way too expensive for me now.

Good luck with the sale.
