This wooden fife is a wonderful example of a typical musical wind instrument of the mid-19^th century.

In very good original condition, this Civil War-era cylindrical fife measures 17” long and is made of rosewood or mahogany. There are 1.5” long German silver ferrules at both ends, and a 0.75” German silver connector. All silver pieces have fine, narrow checkering rings at the edges.

Featured on the tapered body are six evenly spaced finger holes of varying size (approximately 1/4” dia). The mouth hole is located at the opposite end.

Instrument is in very good condition with no cracks or splits. The surface is smooth and clean.  [jet][ph:L]
