| seller note | Antique hearing device detachable in two parts, made of brass and covered with thin leather, c.1870. Good condition, some slight signs of age and use to the leather. |
| comment | I have not seen this grille anywhere and another leather covered item is especially welcome. Domes like this with the two part arrangement are usually much larger - this is a very unusual item |
