Answer:
To protect the gold leaves from drafts of air they are typically enclosed in a glass bottle or glass-walled chamber, usually open at the bottom and mounted over a conductive base. ... They also capture charge leaking through the air that could accumulate on the glass walls, and increase the sensitivity of the instrument.
