We are thrilled to unveil an exciting evolution of the iconic Clarke’s Original Tinwhistle!

Since Robert Clarke crafted the first tinwhistle in Suffolk, England, in 1843, its signature “Chiff” sound—produced by a unique mouthpiece design—has captivated players worldwide, delivering a distinctive, flute-like tone cherished by musicians.

In recent decades, players have asked if a less “breathy” tinwhistle could be developed—one that makes reaching each octave easier while preserving the beloved “Chiff” that defines Clarke’s legacy.

We’re proud to announce that our Nickel and Gold Plated models have been expertly recalibrated to meet this demand. These enhanced instruments offer effortless playability without sacrificing the signature “Chiff” that Clarke is renowned for.

Crafted with precision, the Nickel and Gold Plated models combine superior tonal clarity with the rich resonance of gold or nickel and a refined walnut mouthpiece plug.

This perfect balance ensures an unparalleled playing experience for both seasoned musicians and newcomers alike.
