C. Mahillon Bruxelles Wooden Flute This flute is marked on the body with a star symbol above and below the words C. Mahillon Bruxelles. The very bottom of the flute is marked the same. This flute is in need of some attention. The head of the flute has chips and cracks through to the metal in places it seems, which I have tried to draw out in the last pictures. The chips and cracks look like someone has tried to fill them in. The wood for the body looks good apart from a hairline crack. The bottom of the flute is scratched a bit and also has a crack. The keys all seem to move okay. This flute has an extra C# key. I am unsure how good the pads are. A =440 with the headjoint out just a fraction. This flute has 2 cases. A wooden box case and then a strong canvas material travel case in good condition. The wooden case is made out of a heavy hardwood and is cracked but holding together solidly. The case has a plaque engraved J. R. A. Portal, South Petherton. The case comes with a working key and lock. Even though this flute is aged and has work needed Victor-Charles Mahillon really did make great instruments and this is no exception. All my items for sale can be viewed. I live in the Littlehampton, West Sussex area.
