$272.80

This is for averynice and very cleanlooking pair ofantique scissor spectacles from the early 1800s. The handles protect the lenses inside andthese just swivel out independently and are framed with long stems.This style of reading glasses was of course a utility object but as with other daily objects of the time they were made fashionable, in this case by the \"Incroyables or Incredibles - young Royalist Socialites\" of their time, who took it upon themselves to parade around with these, using them predominantly as a fashion object and occasionally asof a functioning pair of specs. The glasses are strongly magnified and both the frames and the handle arein absolute excellent condition with no chips or cracks. The lenses are clear and also undamaged. The handlesmeasure 110mm (4.3\") long by 35mm (1.3\") across and each lens is35mm (1.3\") in diameter.
