Crystal mouthpiece made by Pomarico in Italy.
Made with crystal to which special mineral components have been added, it produces a warm sound. (Due to the nature of the material, the color of the mouthpiece changes with light.)
Opening 1.21mm
Facing 16.5mm
Purchased in 2015 and played for only six months.
The pitch is slightly low, but I liked its responsiveness and mellow tone. (As well as its beautiful appearance!)
Recommended reed size is around 2 1/2 or 3.
Thank you for looking.
