I love the detail and interest of this piece.  It is a cork borer from a "druggist" or apothecary used for placing small corks into glass vials of powders.  Each borer is numbered as to size and stacks inside of each other.  This set is numbered 2-14 with numbers 1 and 5 missing.  It has a total of 12 borers.  It is an amazing, heavy piece made of brass with patina.  It stands on its own and would make such an interesting addition to a collection of pharmaceuticals, medical implements, curiosities or machinery objects.

Measures 8 inches tall and 3 inches wide at the widest part.
