拍品描述
Europe, 17th to 19th century CE. This is a charming piece that probably belonged to a child from a wealthy family. Before plastic, Europeans had ivory, and they used it for an amazing variety of things that today we make of plastic. This ivory teething ring is in the shape of a collared monkey's head -- with the monkey's mouth holding its own round ring, perhaps to make the child feel better that they were not going through teething alone! Size: 4.35" L x 1.2" W (11 cm x 3 cm).
