Description

6-blade scarifier - Antique medical instrument

Early 20th century

Chromed metal

Antique instrument consisting of a metal box with slits on one side from which a series of blades emerge under the action of a spring, enabling several scarifications to be performed at once.

To use the scarifier, push a spring to retract the blades, then release the spring by pressing a button. The blades then move to the opposite side, each producing a superficial incision.

Could be used for vaccination or bloodletting, reinforced by the use of suction cups.

Diameter: 4.5cm - Height: 6cm
