Powell's Handmade Custom flutes have been the "gold standard" of the flute world for more than eight decades. Powell Custom flutes have been celebrated for their flexibility of color, ease of response and reliability; this is why instruments made in the 1920s are still being played today. Every Custom flute continues this tradition and is handmade to exacting specifications by skilled artisans. Each instrument is a highly functional tool as well as a stunning work of art. The Powell Custom flute is available in a multitude of precious metals and with a variety of features.
