"Alphonse" Tortoiseshell Glasses 1880

Sold out

Sale price€65,00

SKU: sv-l-alphonse-16-petit

Beautiful pair of glasses from an old optician's stock.

These glasses have never been used in almost 140 years...

From the stock of an old optician, circa 1880.

Dimensions: Front: 11.5cm wide / Temples: 10cm folded and 15cm unfolded

Description

These frames can be refitted if needed by an optician.

The finishes are of very very high quality (the temples are made of "piano wire," making the whole thing adjustable and particularly strong). The nose rest is made of tortoiseshell.

They are for sale here as collector's items; we are not opticians.
