  <dc:title>Tilley Nasal Dressing Foreps</dc:title>
  <dc:description>This is a Tilley Nasal Dressing Forceps, named after British surgeon Henry Tilley. The item features an angled screw joint and patterned tips for a secure grip. This shape allows for better manoeuvrability, while the patterned shaft ensures a firm hold, preventing slipping during delicate procedures. The serrated tips provide a strong grip on dressings or other materials, making it a useful tool for Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) surgery.

The forceps are made from nickel-plated metal, which made them easy to sterilise. Additionally, there is an inscription on one handle with the brand logo saying “H.Pfau Germany,” and on the other handle (internally), the number 4. Signs of wear and tear are visible</dc:description>
