About the Item

A remarkable vintage find, this full-size human skeleton model was originally used in medical education since the 1980s, allowing students to study the details of human anatomy with precision. The model showcases every bone of the body with impressive accuracy. The skull opens, the jaws work as well, while the joints are fully articulated, enabling the skeleton to be posed seated or in any natural human positions. A hook at the top of the head allows the model to be easily hung, though it also comes with its original freestanding base with wheels for display. This piece is both functional and collectible—a rare example of vintage medical teaching equipment that can serve equally as a study tool, a design object, or a statement piece in an eclectic interior. In very good vintage condition with only minor wear consistent with age and use.
