Yep.... your olfactory is in fine fettle. A distinctly unmoorish influence in this set.

Tell us something.: I'm here because I just wanted to change my location... but it turns out much more complicated than I thought. Do I already have the 100 required characters?

The huge drone stop key is the giveaway, as well as the quite extreme hourglass shape of the chanter. Last time I saw this set it was made by "someone in Ireland known to us, but with no internet presence"....

The hopeful mom of a new young flute player who's just started attending our session bought a 48.99 flute like the one that pipeseller has.

The flute will make a very handsome lamp.
