Sold
Boxwood and wrought iron dental pelican, louis XIV, left-right with curved handle. A rather primitive, but not very common pelican: the box tree with a rectangular cross-section, which is rather curved, ends in two different stamps, one with a rounded stamp notches, one with a square stamp on a corner. In the middle there is a rivet axis for a pair of wrought iron hooks with a claw on both sides, for the extraction of the right and left molars, upper and lower jaw. Length 14 cm
