    Description

    I'm not sure of exactly what this is, but I found a similar one online that was titled, "Old clay fired 3-hole flute whistle" and it was described as, "functioning art", so I titled mine similarly.  It measures about 13" and weighs 9.4 oz.  Blowing into produces a clean sound with slight differences when closing one or more of the 3 holes.  There is also a hole beneath the mouth piece which stifles the whistle when closed.
    A beautiful folk art piece indeed, but I can't make any claims about its origin - found it at an estate sale which had lots of other wall and mantle art.
