Beautiful set of 4 pince-nez: two in their original box + two folding, they are equipped with tinted glasses (only one has a case).
The centrepiece is the pince-nez in the metal box. It is made of tortoiseshell.
It has been restored to lead, on the outline of the nose.
The second, non-folding, also presented in its original box, is of gilded metal.
Traces of oxidation on the mounts of the two folding pince-nez.
They do not exceed 10 cm, once open.
A box and a case are stamped.
These 4 objects, over 150 years old, are in fair condition, especially the lenses, despite the lack of material on the frames,
the micro-scratches, the condition of the boxes, or traces of oxidation.
