A delightful pair of miniature silver
plated French ear trumpets dating to the 1860s. Most unusual in that
they come in two sections which are secured with a small screw and
which allow rotation of the ear piece to fit the user. In fine
condition noting mild denaturing of the original rubber ear pieces.
A similar set by Rein (although not the same design) are shown in
Bennion's book 'Antique Hearing Devices'. These hand made trumpets
are probably unique. The case is not original
