Marked on the body "M & C Molleron a Lyon M.Chapuis Succ 342" we have a very nice flute from the town of Lyon that had a great traditition in flute making since XVIII century. I can only praise the workmanship of this flute, which, in my opinion, is on par with the more famous Lebret and Djalma Julliot. The flute is in good condition, the action is in good working order, but the pads, which do allow for a few notes, need replacing. It weighs 389 grams and is rated at 440.
