Found during an archaeological dig in Amsterdam's Jordaan district, the instrument was being preserved with PEG solution when measured. It has a very large ivory ring at the bell which was fractured. For a while the instrument was on display at the Amsterdam museum (formerly Historical museum) but has now been confined to a depot.

Attributed to the Rafi family in the museum catalogue, but radically different in construction to known recorders by these makers. Maker's mark is a shield with an unknown animal, very different from the shield and griffin found on instruments with additional Rafi mark and very similar in mark and construction to M2646 and M2647 in Brussels, with which it probably originally formed a set.

Highly unusual instrument with unique key arrangment.

Touch activates upside-down flap under a pierced brass cover. Score mark below cover, but wood seems to match and therefore bell is probably original. The instrument probably originally had a fontanelle, the mounts having been removed to install this key arrangement. Slight ''waisting'' at this point seems to confirm this.The voicing is damaged.
