Amazing antique dentist tool set in its original set, made in the late 18th century. This is an exclusive and unique item for its ancient age, its quality and the fact that it remains complete. All the pieces are original and come into an old-time case, somewhat worn by the trace of time and use but still fulfilling its duty. The set is composed of a bone handle with a screwed end where we can connect the rest of the metal utensils in order to make up different tools. As a whole, the set contains the mentioned handle and nine metal accessories with screwed end. The metal pieces are in excellent condition: their surface only shows a slight antique patina created by the trace of time. There are tools with different designs and uses: a curved knife, several differently-shaped spatulas, a curved tool with a ball at the end (probably used to press fillings) and two hooks. The set is stored into a very antique case, outside covered by a leather-like black material. Though this covering is quite worn, it shows no missing parts and covers the whole case. Inside the box is lined with bright red silk, well preserved if we consider the ancient age of the item. Inside the cover there are four black-and-white trimming strips that make up a decorative frame. The case also keeps the original hinges and shutting hooks, still in use. Fascinating and very attractive, this complete and antique dentist set is an exclusive piece for any collection of medical antiques. Measurements: Width: 2.9 in / 7.5 cm. Depth: 2.2 in / 5.6 cm.
