Description

Circa 1900, an original solid silver or sterling magnifying glass with handle, standing on three feet, probably of American origin.
The repousse leaf and garland design of the handle is also repeated on the solid silver surround of the magnifier.
Marked sterling to both handle and magnifier, and also marked with the number 29.
This is an all original piece, and not made up from old handles attached to new magnifiers, as many seen. It is also entirely made of sterling or solid .925 fine silver and glass.
Size-approx. 4.75 inches long by 2.25 inches diameter.
Weight-60 grams.
Both silver and glass are in very good condition.
A unique piece for desktop or table. It would make a lovely and functional gift or beautiful display piece.
