This type of acoustic horn worked by simple mechanical amplification of sounds: the large bell captured sound vibrations and focused them towards the earpiece. Its detachable and foldable design allowed for more discreet transport in a pocket or bag, a desirable feature for travel models in the early 20th century. With its beautiful golden patina and elegant silhouette, this piece evokes both the world of antique medical instruments and cabinets of curiosities and period scientific objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"730\" data-end=\"985\"\u003e✦ Provenance: Europe\u003cbr data-start=\"751\" data-end=\"754\"\u003e✦ Estimated period: Circa 1900-1920\u003cbr data-start=\"788\" data-end=\"791\"\u003e✦ Dimensions: approx. 38 x 8 x 8.5 cm (unfolded)\u003cbr data-start=\"835\" data-end=\"838\"\u003e✦ Material: Brass\u003cbr data-start=\"856\" data-end=\"859\"\u003e✦ Condition: Good overall condition with beautiful antique patina, traces and marks of use\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"730\" data-end=\"985\"\u003eAn antique hearing aid with scientific and decorative charm, ideal for a cabinet of curiosities, a medical collection or Belle Époque decor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brocante Jolbro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53873255121229,"sku":null,"price":199.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/1049\/5053\/files\/20260510_115429.jpg?v=1778422147","url":"https:\/\/brocantejolbro.com\/en\/products\/corne-de-sourd-ancienne-en-laiton-circa-1900-1920","provider":"Brocante Jolbro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
