Just over it, the horn or trumpet is attached to a fine iron elbow decorated with art-deco style patterns. This piece also holds the arm to which the reproducer is attached. All the pieces are original and look great. This gramophone is undoubtedly a magnificent piece, made with a high attention to detail and which works perfectly. It is the best acquisition for any lover of music and vintage objects. Measurements: Box: 315 mm side. Horn: 460 mm (mouth width) x 640 mm (width).
