Antique Medical Brass Enema Syringe Douche Mahogany Case 1850 by Wood Manchester

Antique Medical Brass Enema Syringe / Vaginal Douche with rubber hose and natural rectal/vaginal pipes. The pump knob is of the same material as the pipes.

Complete kit and in original fitted mahogany case with velvet lining, there is no key and the escutcheon is absent. As seen in the pictures the threaded brass connectors screw together to allow liquid to be drawn into the cylinder of the pump and through the rubber tube to be delivered into the desired orifice, I have shown some of the parts put together but I have not tested the kit with liquid. The pump moves freely but I would expect the seals would need attention if the kit were to be brought into fully usable condition. The rubber hose is intact and not showing any cracks, it is quite stiff and I suspect it may split if moved around too forcibly.

The brass has been polished and the mahogany case cleaned. No wax or lacquer has been applied to the apparatus or box.
