Description

An earpiece was a wireless receiver device used by communications officers, science officers and navigators during the 22nd and 23rd centuries. By the mid-2260s, earpieces were more commonly used aboard Starfleet as well as other alien vessels. Designs differed from race to race but all in all they were all pretty similar. In The Voyage Home Uhura and Spock can both be seen using the Klingon version during their voyage from Vulcan back to Earth aboard their seized Klingon Bird of Prey.   This 3D printed plastic replica has been painted in dark green with black accents. An accurate flanged earbud has also been used as on the screen used prop.   Design by SLK, 3D print by Shapeways & built by myself.
