Rank of Organ Pipes: DULCIANA, 8ft
Full compass, 61 pipes
Quite a reasonable quality Dulciana. Bottom octave is zinc (Unfortunately someone has white-painted the tops of the largest pipes, probably as they were once in a more prominent position) – You may wish to strip these. The rest of the rank is in plain pipe-metal, and the longer of these have rather attractive box-beards. Pressure assumed to be around 3″.The pipes came from the organ of a Yorkshire Methodist Church, which was rebuilt by Fitton and Hayey many decades ago. But the original builder is a mystery. It does have Binns bellows weights, so Binns is a possibility.My details are on the final photo, should you wish to contact me with questions. I have quite a large number of ranks of pipes going through my hands at the moment. Do feel free to call me if you have any requests for pipework (details on final photo)
These pipes have to be collected by the purchaser – the longest is about 9ft long! For buyers in the Midland and the South, I am intending travelling in the next few months to Dorset, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire etc, so could arrange to bring these pipes.
Just a footnote: I do get quite a few requests from private contacts outside Ebay. If one of these wants to buy any of my listed ranks of pipes, I would take them off Ebay during a listing and sell them privately. Once a bid has been placed however, I will always leave the listing to run its course. The moral of the story? – If you want an item, place a bid on it sooner rather than at the last minute.
