Silver and Flesh Coloured Ear Tubes

 

A pair of conical silver ear tubes. Used for people with a narrow external auditory meatus. They were placed in the ear canal with the flesh colour outermost so as to conceal their presence. They are housed in their original black velvet lined fitted case and date to the early 20th century.
