Antique stores and etsy are the treasure troves for everything I list here.

Keywords to avoid anachronistic equipment: cast iron, brass, antique/vintage, victorian.

Have you watched The Knick?? It is literally a Victorian surgery/medical show and it will inspire the hell out of you. Here's some articles about their set design.

Here's a cool webpage for inspo.

Sounds like you're already doing it, but don't be afraid to marry the 'doctor/surgery' with the 'scientist' props/aesthetics to give yourself more room to play.

• Think about human body parts you can display or 'pickle' (put in a jar with some colored water or pour in some resin/clear glue goop)... I promise, these are here for study, not because I murdered anyone... Like this heart. Keywords: anatomical.
• Human bones or a skull (a real nice-looking medical/classroom skeleton will probably be too expensive, 'cause you don't wanna give plastic Halloween skeleton vibes, but you could get a nice smaller tabletop one!).
• Chemistry equipment: Vials, flasks, beakers, and funnels obvs. 'Test tube clamps' or 'beaker tongs.'
  • Make a homemade filter/siphon taking inspo from this object or this setup-- just hot-glue any two glass items together because it looks hella cool.
• Pipettes. Honestly just go with these disposable ones, they read like glass when in the midst of a setup.
• A laboratory stand with a vial and some tubes you can run liquids through (red for blood, blue for... science?). This is modernish but perhaps you could paint the black plastic with brass paint or cover it somehow? This is epic but pricey.
• A bunsen burner (alternatively this one).
• A nice 'lil tripod stand (alternatively, this). Put a beaker or a glass sphere on top, fill with liquid.
• A microscope (jump on this ebay listing- I RARELY see microscopes this cheap). Alternatively, this one. with slides and glass petri dishes (you can easily put cool 'spores' or whatever in your petri dishes with craft supplies).
• An old metal scale. For max authenticity, you could spring for something by this seller.
• Weird bottles and animals and 'ingredients' or herbs. Keywords: curio, oddities, apothecary, preserved animals, wet specimens.
  • Ye old classic LARP leeches.
• A rolling cart (ikea? thrift store? they're expensive yikes) or silver tray to display surgery-bedside instruments.
  • Speculums are good because they're all metal (timeless) and they look really scary. Here's one and a nasal one.
  • Sponges to soak up blood (seen on The Knick). Cotton balls, white gauze- timeless and cheap.
  • A needle/suture holder will give you that old-timey scissors thing you want. Curved needles. You can get some regular white thread to stage this with.
  • Modern silver scalpels are timeless but also real blades so probably not best suited to be in a LARP environment.
  • WAIT LOOK AT THIS AWESOME SET
• Syringe options: the seller VintageMedicalShop on Etsy has tons of listings.
