About this piece

Antique silver folding lorgnettes circa 1890, designed for fashionable ladies of the late 19th century. The silver frames feature delicate engraving and intricate filigree work characteristic of the period.

A compact folding mechanism opens with a flick of the wrist to reveal lenses for clear vision. The portable scale suits carrying in a handbag or wearing on a fine chain.

More than a practical optical aid, these lorgnettes reflected social status within the era’s formal settings and gatherings, showcasing late 19th-century craftsmanship and design.
