Can anyone suggest a really good violin mute? It needs to make the violin dramatically quieter so I can play late-ish at night! Thank you

I have two.
This one cuts out the most sound and is what I use when I really don't want to be heard:

This one still cuts off some sound (more than an orchestral mute, but not as much as the one above) and allows some tonal and dynamic variation:

They sell another one which I think might be kind of between the two above, but I've never tried it.

Thank you very much! The metal one looks like exactly the sort of thing I'm after
