Collectible bronze dental articulator
Circa 1920 for the bronze mount
An articulator is a mechanical device used in dentistry to which models of the upper and lower teeth are attached; it reproduces the recorded positions and aids in the manufacture of removable devices such as dentures, as well as fixed prosthetic restorations such as crowns.
This example bears the stamp ‘E.P.A. Paris’ (or E.P.H.) on its adjustment knob, the mark of a small Parisian precision engineering workshop that no longer exists. In an era when plastic did not exist, these instruments were designed to last the practitioner’s entire career.
The plaster and resin forming the gums and teeth are recent.
These indestructible bronze models can still be used for practical work in dental studies.
Dimensions: 12x7cm Height: 6.5cm
This type of model with an adjustable knob can be found in the 1921 catalogue of Claudius Ash Sons, and Co.

Green label: SUBSTANCE TO BE STORED SEPARATELY – CODEX 1908
Indicating to the pharmacist that it must be stored separately from other substances in the cabinet for toxic substances, the famous ‘poison cabinet’.
It comes from the former cellar-laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not been moved from the shelves since the late 1950s. The cellar had served as a medical analysis laboratory and a laboratory for the pharmacy’s compounded preparations from 1900 until around 1950.
