Both glass and case are in exceptional antique condition, making this a distinctive gift for a physician, pharmacist, or gentleman collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCased glasses like these were employed to accurately measure liquid medicines; used in the home but also carried as standard kit by doctors or nurses when visiting patients.  Their graduated measures were more reliable than the standard household teaspoon or dessert spoon, whose size and capacity could vary enormously, no small issue when administering remedies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions (Case): 3” high x 2-3\/16” wide\u003cbr\u003eDimensions (Glass): 2-1\/2” high x 2” wide (top) x 1-1\/2” (base)\u003cbr\u003eWeight (Together): 2.8 ounces\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition notes: Excellent antique condition overall.
