[Histonet] What is this item called?

[Tony Reilly]

Hello
 
I have not seen one of these for many years.  I may be wrong but in the back of my mind I seem to remember using these at university for growing cell cultures.  That might be an area to focus your search though they have most likely been superceded by now.
 
regards
Tony

Barry, It is 3" x 1 3/4", and the depression has a 1 1/2" diameter.

Thanks for all the ideas so far.  It isn't a hanging drop slide or a watch
glass.  You can see a picture of it next to a depression slide here:

I don't see a better way to send a picture on this list.
