The chromed-metal component parts (elbow, reproducer and arm) are finely preserved, polished and shiny. The elbow which holds the horn-and-reproducer set and connects it to the box is a beautiful element: it is decorated with a gorgeous embossed motif which stands out on a black background. The gramophones reproducer shows a very good condition too. At the center it bears an inscription in golden lettering printed on a black background: MADE IN GOLDRING LUXUX ENGLAND. Connected to the reproducer by the metal arm we can see the striking witchs hat horn, made of golden metal and in amazing condition.
