You can buy them at Flute World.

I didnt even think of checking them wow...thanks ill check them out

I got one from fluteworld for a very good price, made by northwind, it is for my cfoot haynes and has picc compartment, the price was very good, it has burgundy velvet lining.

Yes, Flute World seems to have the lowest price for the leather covered French cases. They sell the nice ones. Not the China ones that smell funny with the crappy cheap velvet interior. I am such a flute case snob! lol!!!

im looking for a wooden case, such as the kind that the pearl flutes and miyazawa flutes are in. anyone know where they can be purchased?

Are you talking about the ones with the all wooden case even in the inside, but where the part of the flute lays is velvet lined? ive seen them they are nice, i havent seen them on fluteworld though. I just love the feeling of velvet, and that red burgundy color i love as well

I bought my all wood one off of ebay and re did the whole thing. I took off all the orange colored varnish and all the cheap velvet that it was lined with and replaced it with a nice wine red velvet. I was actually thinking about selling it because I don't use it because I mostly store my flute in the combination case with my piccolo.

There are some pictures of it on my site..

I am a case snob as well, so you are not alone, Northwind is the maker of most of the best cases, I just wish I could afford a really nice Wirkilla case cover...

Oh I know, me too! Those case covers are really nice. Powell makes a nice leather covered one with velvet lining for combination cases that I want. The only thing is that it does not have an interior or exterior pocket. That is not good

If you want to be a real case snob,,have a look at these, all hand made.

Some beautiful cases, but with a price to match!!
If I can remember right,they start from about £200 (about $400 if i'm right)upwards.
Oh, you got to send him your flute too, so the case can be made to be a perfect fit for it.

Suzie, I will be bringing my Powell which comes in the case that you want with the black velvet. Let me have a look at your case when I come and I might just trade you.

It is thundering and raining this morning I hope my flight isn't delayed.

SUZIE!!!! I WANT YOUR CASE!!!! I WILL BUY IT FROM YOU!!!!!!
