From Powell:

"The Powell Sonaré 505 Model features our hand-cut Sterling Silver Signature II Headjoint with a Nickel Silver, Silver Plated Body and Mechanism. Available with Offset or In-line G Keys, B or C foot joints, this model is distinguished by beautiful French Pointed Arms.

French Pointed Arms distribute the pressure from the player’s fingers directly to the center of the key cup, providing a better seal. The Split-E mechanism is available on Offset flutes only. The 505’s Sterling Silver headjoint can be upgraded with an Aurumite 9K Lip plate, known as the K style headjoint."

Verne Powell developed the Ardeleve flute around 1951 by placing a Powell headjoint on a flute made in France. The Powell® Sonaré® model is based on this concept and was established in 2002. Every Powell Sonaré flute features a hand-cut headjoint and body made at the Boston area shop. Powell Sonaré models are available in a range of levels, all of which allow the player to perform with the renowned, professional Powell Sound virtuosity at a step-up flute price. The Sonaré C flute retains some of the design features from the Powell Signature flute that are critical for acoustical quality. Sonaré C flutes feature bodies made using patented Zinki technology (U.S. patent #7,420,109) and handmade Powell Signature® headjoints. Every Sonaré model includes an elegant French style case, nylon case cover, swab stick, gauze swab and polishing cloth.
