Fine antique stethoscope made from an only piece of solid wood. This item dates from the 1st quarter of the 20th century and remains in amazing condition, without visible flaws or cracks. As well as being a nice antique, this is quite a decorative piece. The wood boasts a fine light-golden color and a delicate veneer with different shades of brown. The stethoscope preserves the original glossy lacquered finish, a satin varnish that protects and embellishes the wood. In order to use this tool, the doctor would put the circular end to the patients chest while putting his or her ear in contact with the other end. This way, he or she could listen to the patients heartbeat or breathing. Inside the stethoscope is drilled from end to end; this feature improves the sound transmission. As original as authentic, this antique stethoscope is a piece worthy of a medicine museum. Measurements: Length: 6.2 in / 16 cm. Bases Width: 1.9 in / 5 cm.
