This hand-held massager belongs to a series of objects (accession nos. 2007-50972 to 51483) that document the lifestyle and consumption of a typical Chinese upper middle-class family in the mid 20th century. This early model of self-massaging devices works by applying the tip of the device like acupuncture on the body’s pressure points.
