Wisp of horse hair L250, fastened by cord and wax to brass rod L300 with brass sphere Dia18 at the end. The rod is bent, so as to be hung on a conductor. It has been assumed to be a wisp for use with an electrophorous, but could also be to demonstrate the repelling action of electricity.1800 app (g)
