Kapok

Stand a flute or recorder upright on its foot joint

A stand for a flute or alto recorder rooted like a rainforest kapok tree. Six plank buttresses flare from the trunk, so a tall, top-heavy instrument stands on a wide footprint that weighs little; the 17 mm peg goes up inside the foot joint and the collar takes its rim.
