Here is the revised description:A 12-key German flute offered as a restoration project or parts source. The instrument is presented in unrestored condition with significant damage across multiple sections and is best suited to an experienced restorer or collector, or as a donor instrument for parts. The head joint has a crack through the embouchure and a crack through the barrel, and is missing its cork and crown assembly. The left-hand body section is in comparatively good shape with no cracks noted. The right-hand section has a crack in the socket that extends to the fourth tone hole, and the foot ring is missing. All 12 keys are intact. Sounding length is 646mm.A partially legible stamp appears on the instrument, reading something like "Friedrich Sch..." with "Bohemia" below. The surname is not fully decipherable, but Bohemia was a significant center of woodwind instrument making through the 19th and into the early 20th century, producing large numbers of simple-system flutes for both domestic and export markets. Without a fully legible stamp, the specific maker and date of this example cannot be confirmed.
