This flute is being sold as-is for restoration. Likely made late 19th century / early 20th. The sounding length is 59mm, and it appears to be a low-pitch flute, likely suitable for 440 Hz play once restored. Repairs required include addressing the headjoint cork and sealing the barrel section. There are visible bite marks, likely caused by an animal, which could be repaired with blackwood dust and cyanoacrylate for a cleaner appearance.
