What Are Flutes Made Of?
Silver-colored flutes may either be silver-plated or made of nickel-silver or solid silver. Solid silver (also known as sterling silver) is silver with a purity of 92.5% and is used for both the tube and the key system.
Golden flutes are made of gold of various different purities, such as 9-carat, 14-carat, and 18-carat gold. The higher the number, the higher the percentage of gold content.
In 14-carat gold, gold, silver, and copper are blended together. Higher levels of copper give the metal a reddish hue, and higher levels of silver produce a yellowish gold. In a concert hall, red 14-carat gold really sparkles like gold.
As a musical instrument, it is important that a flute's sound be beautiful; however, for aesthetic purposes, it is also important the design and the material are also beautiful.
