$525 Flageolet flute/ fife in D rosewood English Douglas & Co. in Outremont, Quebec for sale

This English flageolet & flute or fife dates from the mid to late nineteenth century, and was manufactured by the London instrument maker Douglas & Co. The 6 keys are made of nickel silver, and are all sound, pads intact, springs work well, no looseness. Two interchangeable heads allow the instrument to be played as a transverse flute or fife, as well as a flageolet. The flageolet's beak is made of bone. I acquired this old instrument in the early 1980s, in Victoria, British Columbia. It was assessed, and the fife tuned, by a professional flutist from the Victoria Symphony Orchestra. He very much liked its sound and found it delightful as a historical instrument. The fife is missing an end cap, though this doesn't affect its playing ability, since there's an adjusted cork inside the flute head. The instrument is stored in an oak box that is older than the flageolet. The box appears to be 18th century, and was originally for another instrument. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to find you answers. If you have specific info about this instrument, I'd also be pleased to hear from you. Je communique également en français.
