Details
Our Mahogany Flutes vary in wood color from light to dark. Please contact customer service for any other questions.
Mariposa is the Spanish word for butterfly. Our Signature Mariposa flute is inspired by our deep appreciation for nature and it's unfathomable beauty. The butterfly also signifies transformation, which the musical voice of our flutes offer to those playing them, to those hearing them, and to the harmonious sounds of the world around us.
This flute is tuned in the key of A minor(440 Hz) this flute can also be played in the relative major diatonic scale in the key of C. It is about 20 inches (51 cm) long with a 1-inch (2.5 cm) bore diameter.
Each of our flutes is handcrafted from a single piece of wood. The body of the flute is decorated with Striped Agate stone inlay, and two Gold Lipshell cabochons on the flute's fetish.
For over 30-years we have been crafting flutes from single pieces of different species of woods and in the process we have become adept at choosing planks with natural characteristics to turn into incredible sounding flutes, including those with many knots in the wood. We are experts at a technique called Turquoise Accent, which fills small cosmetic wood knots in our woods.
Every Signature Flute is designed to be both a musical instrument as well as a piece of beautiful artwork. Our precision tuning insures that each Signature Flute is easily able to meet the requirements of any musician. Our Signature Series flutes utilize a unique airflow design that provides exceptional responsiveness and player control, superior amplification, and makes them ideal for a wide range of musical styles.
