Lot #46: Antique Sterling Silver Lorgnette Eye Glasses

Starting bidding

$1.00

Time Remaining:

Bidding starts in 0d 2h 5m

This Victorian lorgnette is finely crafted in faux tortoise shell, tested sterling silver, and glass. The folding glasses measure just 3 1/4 inches long including the large bale that allows it to be worn on a chain or chatelaine, 3/4 inches across, and 3/8 inches deep when closed. Opened, the extended glasses measure 4 inches across and 3/4 inches high, excluding the faux tortoise shell handle. They open and close with a spring ring mechanism that works well. The faux tortoise component is dark colored with a fine engraved border inset with a twisted silver rope that is a wonderful decorative accent despite more than half now missing. There is also a silver inlaid rectangle on the front that has the initials C and E in script. With the exception of the missing twisted silver rope, the antique spectacles are in excellent condition and very elegant. Shipping within Canada is available on this lot. Please see Auction Pickup information Tab for details. Pickup category timeslot {A}
