Here is a fine flute by Hug of Zurich: date of fabrication is I think about 1910. It looks just like the Louis Lot flute in the covered key cup model. Everything is hand made with soldered tone holes and it has a B footjoint and extra key linkages for left small finger  to give you I think D sharp and C with less effort and also the useful G trill lever. Looks in great condition with 100% intact plating, but will need a full overhaul for concert playing. Length approx 71 cm and tonal length 63.8 cm.This is a very rare collectors' item. Please see the photos.Good luck for bidders !
