An All Ivory Pic





  Here is an all ivory piccolo for sale by All Musical Instruments in New York. Ivory headed German piccolos are common on eBay. I've not seen another all ivory pic before. It looks fairly German to my eye but could be English or made somewhere else. I believe it is unmarked with nickel silver keys.

Noted flute player James McMahon born in  Roslea, Fermanagh was known for playing an all ivory flute around Belfast. He was reportedly friends with the McPeakes.

The Ivory Flute is a nice jig composed by the man himself.
