DescriptionThis object is a metal nasal speculum used to provide a clearer view of a patient's nasal cavity. the object is shaped in a similar manner to a pair of pliers, with two serrated handles located below a hinge. The handles each operate half of a conical speculum located above the hinge which can be opened to a small degree. "FEICK BROS" is stamped on one of the handles just below the hinge. Moderate levels of rust are prevalent across the object, especially on the conical head and within the serrated grooves of the handle.On View
