A Sahli haemometer in a black leatherette case. The case measures 16 x 9 x 4 cm, and is lined with purple velvet. The lid is stamped in gold lettering: Haemometer Sahli, E.F. Buchi & Sons, Berne (Switzerland). A printed "Notice" is pasted to the inside lid of the case. The instrument itself has a plastic viewer with two glass tubes. One tube is graduated, while the other is double sealed. The instrument as a whole measures 11 x 3.4 cm. The case and instrument are both in fair condition. The item was removed in June 2003 for hazardous waste disposal.
