The choke pear (or pear of anguish) is the modern name for a type of instrument displayed in some museums, consisting of a metal body (usually pear-shaped) divided into spoon-like segments that could be spread apart by turning a screw. the museum descriptions and some recent sources assert that the devices were used either as a gag, to prevent people from speaking, or as an instrument of torture. the instrument was inserted into the victim's mouth, and then slowly spread apart as the screw was turned., holzschnitt aus dem jahre 1864
