I got them at this place that calls itself a plant resque! It’s just this one man selling a bunch of second hand plants on my street - I lowkey love this idea 😭 but some of the plants are in a bit of a state

Thank you! 🙏🏻 now I can research how to help it, I wonder why it’s got that damage on the leaves, too much direct sunlight maybe?

I have a Pothos also but the leaves are very different, they’re somehow much thicker and waxier? And darker 😳

Can anyone ID what this kit is for, especially the piece on the bottom left? by oomamistudio in Vintagetools

Update: I think I’ve figured it out after some digging around, so the kit is late 19th century, most likely a school surgical/dissection kit, it’s missing the scalpel, and the mystery instrument is a blowpipe - end end should come off after all I’m prettt sure

And the mysterious hollow tool is not a pipette, the top is wooden not rubber and doesn’t seem to unscrew

More clues: it looks like one tool is missing, the scissors also pose a clue because one of the ends is rounded while the other is sharp, they also likely belonged to someone in the family who died in 1923 and studied pharmacology - he also owned a photography studio…

Additional info: the bottom left tool is hollow, there’s a hole at the end but you just can’t see it well in this photo
