Bakelite & Silk wound Conversation Tube 

 
A fine Victorian conversation tube with bakelite head and earpiece. The tube is wound with dark brown silk and is tapered, being wider at the bell end than at the earpiece (a feature which which made the construction and subsequent covering of the tube much more difficult). The tube and covering is immaculate and the earpiece and bell have no chips or cracks and the piece is in overall excellent condition.
