Platinum

Platinum is, without a doubt, the most distinctive and intriguing flute material. The incredible density of this metal produces a prized sound unlike any other. Deep, yet projecting, the sound of a Powell Platinum flute is the ultimate experience.

Made with .010” tubing, the Platinum flute is offered with both Sterling Silver and 10K Yellow Gold Mechanism. From the world-renowned “World’s Fair Flute” #365 of William Kincaid to the flutes of today.
