This flute is made from a stunning piece of maple. The wood not only has a tight tiger stripe grain, but it also has spalting which adds depth of color and character. Spalting happens when fungus starts to decompose the wood. This flute is just as hard and durable as a normal maple flute, but it has a rich array of colors and dark lines in the wood. This flute has a nice substantial weight and a silky smooth finish. Its voice is clear and full.
