Set of obstetrical instruments, cased, by Arnold and Sons, mid 19th century, English

This is a cased obstetrical instrument set that was manufactured by Arnold & Sons of London, England. It contains various equipment including several pairs of obstetrical forceps. The instruments have ebony handles and were therefore harder to clean than all-metal ones.
