An 18th century shagreen and silver case containing a silver topped hand cut glass bottle and a heavy silver syringe. The glass stopper is fixed and I am not sure about the contents but this set is likely to have had a medical use. Similar medical syringes have been used to administer solutions and or medications (see last picture). I believe that the contents of the bottle would have been titrated into the syringe and sprayed into either nostril. Probably for the relief of nasal congestion or sinusitis. If any one has further information do please contact me.
