Magnifying Glass Description
This antique magnifying glass features a substantial brass frame and a large circular lens. The handle is intricately turned from a dark wood, providing a comfortable and elegant grip. The construction suggests a Victorian-era origin, likely intended for detailed work, reading, or as a display piece. The substantial weight and quality of materials indicate a well-made and durable instrument.
Magnifying Glass Condition
This magnifying glass presents with the expected patina and wear consistent with its age. There are minor surface scratches to the lens and some discolouration to the brass, adding to its character. It is a desirable piece for collectors of optical instruments or those seeking a unique decorative item. The glass is intact, and the handle remains firmly attached.
