We believe that this strange looking device is a Leevers-Rich BBC Acoustic Baffle and Suspension Ring For a STC 4021 Apple and Biscuit Microphone or Western Electric 630A Mic.

Approximate Size

In reasonably good condition with some rusting and discolouration.  I'm not absolutely sure how it was mounted, and fitting attachments are not included.
