In the bowed-string jargon in Finnish (and to some degree, in plucked-strings as well), flageolet tones are ones where you damp the fundamental and force an overtone node by softly touching the string at the desired location. As a result, the string goes into an almost pure overtone vibration mode, with tone quality very different from normal fingering.
