The William Sinclair and Son company of Leith will go down in history as one of the leading pipemakers of their day. The company began making pipes around 1930, but appears to have closed down as of 2019 with the death of the last Sinclair son, a third-generation pipemaker.
This set of Sinclair Bagpipes is made in blackwood, mounted in full ivory, and was likely made in the 1960s.
The pipes have been stripped and refinished in the usual oil/wax finish preferred on this site. Two small hairline cracks were found under two ferrules, and these have been sealed.
This set played very steadily and with a bright, resonant tone.
