FLUTES

DARTMOOR
FLUTES
Handcrafted from English woods
by Nigel Shaw
These
traditional wooden flutes are individually hand-carved from
various indigenous woods, most of which are sourced from
the moors. The instruments are based on an original Native
American design which Nigel has adapted and developed into
a flute that plays the songs of this ancient land. Each
flute is uniquely shaped, carefully tuned to a specified
key and accompanied by a finger chart. Every flute is made
to order and can be created to your own specification. Availability
of wood type may vary. Some examples can be seen below.
