In times of plague and epidemics, specialist doctors were hired to treat the sick, and many wore a distinctive mask filled with aromatic items as protection from disease. This mask had a cone nose shaped like a beak to hold the fragrant substances and straw. This 6 inch high, 5.5 inch long, 5.5 inch wide (15x14x14 cm) plague doctor trinket box is expertly cast in resin and hand painted in an antique bronze and metallic finish showing off the amazing detail in a fantastical blending of man and machine, and it's a great place to hide away your own items right out in the open! It's a great gift any steampunk enthusiast or collector is sure to treasure!
