An increasingly hard to find example
of the "beehive" ear trumpet. Dated to 1880 this silver plated
hearing device has a lovely patina and an ornate and attractive art
nouveau style grille. It has been well used and there are several
small dents shown in the photographs which are of minor
significance. Overall the condition is very good. Signed by
Franck-Valerie 9 Rue Richepanse. 9. Paris. The ear trumpet is a good
size, standing 15 x 8 x 11 cm. A fine and rare example of a
beautifully 'sculpted' ear piece. |
