Briccialdi Italia Modello 2-03? Authentic?

[pwhite1152]

Hello all,

Quick question about a flute I have. It is called a Briccialdi Modello 2-03, however when we took a look at the engraving it seems a bit "fake" to us. We also cannot find any information about this particular model online. If anyone knows anything about this flute, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hello,
this flute, Briccialdi model 203, is the entry level of "Briccialdi flauti". It's a student flute.
I can see in your photos that the headjoint has a titanium stopper plug. I also have a Briccialdi flute, Argento II model, great flute!

Ciao from Italy

Hi. I'm from Italy and I've a 2-03 model.
It's a student flute...but with a great sound and playability if you consider that its price is only 300 Euros.
The mechanic is really soft for the fingers and all the keys are really comfortable.
And more, it has the titanium stopper that makes the flute really easy to play.

Yes, the logo printings are not so accurate such as the more expensive flutes. But the things that really interest me on a flute ...are others!
By the way I've seen at a flute fair here in Italy the new 2-03 model. And the logo printing now is more accurate and with deep stretch more beautiful to look.

Thank you for the replies! I'll go ahead and assume I do not have a copy on my hands
