A fine 19th C ivory and
silver trocar. The
top of this delicately carved piece unscrews to reveal
a silver cannula sheath which is inserted over the
central needle. The ivory body of the trocar is
marked with the number "2". The ivory is in excellent
condition throughout with no cracks or marks (A
similar instrument can be seen on
page 178 of Elisabeth Bennion's Antique Medical
Instruments) |
