Brass & Mother-of-Pearl Magnifying Glass with Round Bottom
A circular magnifying lens rests within a slender brass frame, extending into an ornate handle accented with luminous mother-of-pearl. Turned brass details and a sculptural fluted finial lend a sense of old-world elegance, while the shell catches soft flashes of ivory and champagne. Both beautiful and functional, this lovely piece is perfectly suited to a library desk, where it can be used for reading fine print, examining antique details, or simply displayed among treasured curiosities.
