Description from the seller

Rare teaching model of acupuncture representing a male human body, used for teaching traditional Chinese medicine.
The surface of the body is finely marked with the set of meridians and acupuncture points, with inscriptions in Chinese characters and alphanumeric codes, covering the front, the back, the limbs, and the head.

The model is mounted on a wooden base with a metal support rod.
The colored tracings (green, blue, yellow, red) allow a clear reading of the different energy meridians.

This type of piece was intended for traditional medicine schools, acupuncture clinics, or training institutes, and today it is a sought-after collectible, at the crossroads of science, medical history, and design.

A striking decorative object, ideal for a collector, practitioner, doctor's office, or an enthusiast of vintage scientific objects.
