Beautiful flute! Are you the maker? If not, who? The wood covered slide is a nice touch!

Yes, very interesting design touches. Lovely.

Jayhawk, why do you think this is a wood covered slide and not a complete rosewood tenon?
Lovely looking flute at a good price.
Best wishes,
Keith.

Keith...I guess it could be a wood tenon, but with the barrel there....I assumed it was a slide. It would be a lot of extra work to turn two tenons so close to each other.

Re: FS: keyless Irish flute rosewood from Russia
I'd expect if either the head or the barrel had a tenon, that the receiving end (socket) would be thicker, as is the case to receive the tenons where the main joint connects.
My guess would be either it's a wood-covered slide, or not even a slide at all, just wood turned to simulate the appearance of one.

Kevin...that second idea is a definite possibility. I could see that being it...and it looks good!

Re: FS: keyless Irish flute rosewood from Russia
I thought two holes at the bottom were supposed to be irrelevant nowadays?

Re: FS: keyless Irish flute rosewood from Russia
They are only irrelevant if you cut the lower joint shorter. With the theoretical faux slide, this maker may be a bit of a traditionalist and went for the long footed look? I am clearly hypothesizing here.

Surely its a wooden tenon with a cork lined barrel socket...Just like a Sweetheart.
IMHO the whole thing screams ,SWEETHEART

The whole headjoint has continuous grain - it looks to me like it's one single turned piece of wood, with neither tuning slide nor cork.

Yes, I think so too. The grain of the tenon fits in with that theory.ericgrey wrote:Surely its a wooden tenon with a cork lģined barrel socket...Just like a Sweetheart.
