cork tenons on historical instruments

Author: jdbassplayer

Hello all,
Over the years I have purshaced several boxwood clarinets. More recently I was blessed with the oppoturnity to purchace a very old flageolet by Hermann Wrede. Usuially when I restore boxwood instruments I use string for the tenons, but when I restored the flageolet I decided to use cork. At the time I thought it was a great idea but now I am wondering if this will affect the value. Is there a signifficant effect on the value if I use cork instead of string? Could I also use cork my boxwood clarinets without affecting the value?

Thank you in advance for your opinions!
