Description

PRAVAZ syringe: Antique syringe from the end of the 19th century.

Morphine addicts of the end of the XIXth and the beginning of the XXth century often used this kind of elegant syringe in its small case that could be easily slipped into a pocket.

The syringe is in it's case.

This syringe has a plunger with graduations and a glass body but the tips are not made of metal but seem to be made of celluloid resin, the ancestor of all plastics, manufactured at the end of the 19th century.
A screw step graduated from 0 to 10 allows to adjust its stroke and to measure the quantity of injected liquid.

The syringe is in its small case with felt inside. The compartment for the metal wires that were to be inserted into the needle is behind the felt part of the cover.

Dimensions of the case: 7.5cmx3cm

Dimensions of the syringe: Length 7cm without the needle
