One of my favourite Bb flutes is a Riviere and Hawkes from the mid to late 1800s. It's boxwood with brass rings and a brass Eb key. I made a new end cap for it as the original was broken and also made a modern style headjoint cork with brass disc and threaded stem which the end cap screws onto (as you'd find on a modern piccolo). While it plays very nicely and cuts through well in a large gym alongside a rope tension drum, it's very much banana-shaped.
