Bellows
Bellows Summary: 5-Fold Lachenal-designed leather bellows, with delicate gilt-embossed leather on the bellows-frames. A further appearance of the new gold and green floral-patterned bellows papers, but the previous Wheatstone labelling on the lower bout does not now appear, possibly due to the Lachenal manufactory now providing much of the work for Wheatstones' 1860 production.

Inner Bellows Cradle: A cradle of Twelve triangular mounts (all spread equally around the the inner bellows-frame) to support the reed-pan.
