It's a shoulder rest for a F-type handset.  It simply clips on the handle and is supposed to provide something to wedge between your neck and shoulder.

Many have lost their flexibility and may break when trying to install them.

Thanks Paul,

Boy,  that seems like it would get very uncomfortable after a while.

Snicker! ;D
     I couldn't agree more; trying to hold my cell on my shoulder is akin to trying to pin a wet bar of soap there. :o

Best regards!

Actually, the white one looks like it would work well.  Do you think it might be too conspicuous?

I've got a better solution, and it only costs whatever a pack of elastic bands costs at a local stationers... ;D
