I purchased this little gem while abroad in Singapore 5-6 years ago, and promptly forgot about it. It looked old, which appealed to me, so I picked it up.
I am a guitar player mostly, but have been wanting to learn a few other instruments.
Having recently found this again while doing spring cleaning, I decided to hit the web and try to figure out exactly what it is, and perhaps how old it is.
From my research, I am relatively sure it is a fife, and possibly dates to late 1800's, but I am no woodwind expert, and couldn't find much else about it.
6 finger holes, plus one key. Marked "Made for Boosey & Hawkes London"
15.5" long
