Teller's wicket

This new grille is a reproduction, with all the muddy imperfection of a silicone mold process. Yes, it is nice that they went that far to put back an original feature. The bank does not have an original wicket to be seen in the space, very sad to say. A view of an original one on display at the Chicago Institute of Art can be seen here.
