The early logbooks of the Rudall (Rose, Carte, & Co.) company are lost, making exact dating of flutes made before 1869 somewhat speculative. Robert Bigio sheds much light on the company in his Rudall, Rose, & Carte but does not suggest specific dates for many early instruments. Free 3d Rigged Model For 3ds Max Student there.

Flutes built before about 1855 do not have numbers, though some pre-1855 flutes that later passed through the company for resale were given serial numbers at that time.

The phrase “Council and Prize Medals” is included on Carte 1851 model flutes made after about 1852 (flutes of the 100 New Bond period and beyond). Boehm and Rockstro models are not given this marking. Some 1867 models have this marking. Flutes with large foot holes appear around 1863 in response to the very large foot holes offered by Clinton in the 1862 London Exhibition. Flutes with all large holes appear about the same time and were marked 'Rockstro's Model' from 1864 on (according to Rockstro). Early examples of flutes marked 'Rockstro's Model' may not have serial numbers (see, for example, Bigio p. 180, left side).

Points of Reference • Serial numbers do not appear before mid-1854 as shown by a flute without serial number in an original case dated June 19, 1854 (Bigio p. The first gold flute was made in 1856 and a gold flute number I.E.

(40) is mentioned in Bigio p. 3 which may be the first, or nearly the first, gold flute. If so, then serial numbers started no later than 1855, the year of the Paris Exhibition. (106) is in an original case dated Feb.

(505) was made in late 1868 (Bigio p. Estimated metal flute serial numbers (beginning of each year): 1855: 1 (M.) 1856: 13 (M.S.) 1857: 25 (U.C.) 1858: 38 (S.A.) 1859: 51 (C.M.) 1860: 64 (T.I.) 1861: 77 (R.R.) 1862: 90 (D.E.) 1863: 103 (M.E.S.) 1864: 181 (M.A.M.) 1865: 259 (U.C.D.) 1866: 337 (S.S.R.) 1867: 415 (I.M.C.) 1868: 493 (I.D.S.) 1869: 531 (C.S.M.) Assuming production levels were roughly the same before and after 1855 (13/year), then approximately 90 additional cylindrical flutes without serial numbers were built between late 1847 and the end of 1854. Pre-1862 production levels were, then, roughly equivalent to that of Boehm, who produced 155 flutes by mid-1862. After 1862, metal flute production increased to about 78/year through 1867, declining to 38/year in the early 1870’s, 28/year in the late 1870’s, and 14/year in the mid-1880’s.
