Description:

Technical description: Chanter with 6 finger-holes and 1 thumb-hole; an open-standing key replaces the seventh finger-hole; five closed-standing brass keys; Bass drone looped to reduce overall length. Baritone regulator, four closed-standing silver keys. The drones and regulator are set in a common stock. Boxwood, ivory and silver mounted. Bellows and green silk bag cover. Keyhead type: Square flat. Repair History: One key at least is a later addition because it obliterates the maker's name stamp between two of the finger-holes; another key has been removed and the hole stopped.
