DescriptionThis is a group of assorted equipment used in veterinary practices. The equipment consists of small metal objects that could be used as part of a larger kit. There is a piece of metal that has been wrapped in a circle twice, possibly for use as a hook or attachment device. The other larger item is a metal rod with one hook on each end. The rod is made of one continuous piece of metal so that each end curves from a straight line into a triangle shaped hook on each side. The remaining objects are four small cylinders that might have been used to attach grips and handles to small objects such as needles. Two of cylinders have sides that have been flattened around the curve so they are easier to grip, while the other two have ridges engraved around the top and bottom edges for the same purpose.On View
