Silver And Vermeil Face-to-hand

Very pretty face-to-hand from the middle of the 19th century in vermeil. The glasses are no longer present but it is up to you to divert the initial function of these eyeglasses with handles. Why not hang it on a long sautoir chain for some Edwardian literary flair?! You can open or close it as you wish, the system remaining in perfect condition. Vermeil is a precious metal composed of silver covered with gold used for a number of utilitarian objects. These binoculars are a beautifully crafted example with patterns characteristic of this era.
