Antique Lorgnette Glasses
Platinum French Stamped
Circa 1920s
A rare and elegant pair of antique French lorgnettes dating to the 1920s, crafted in sleek platinum and reflecting the refined aesthetics of the early Art Deco period. Designed with classic round lenses and a folding handle, these lorgnettes embody the sophistication of French accessories from the golden age of couture and café society.
The platinum frame is beautifully understated, with clean lines and balanced proportions that feel both timeless and architectural. The folding mechanism functions smoothly, and the lorgnettes open and close properly, making them a wonderful surviving example of functional antique eyewear.
Condition Notes:
The lenses are of unknown prescription and show visible surface scratches consistent with age. They could be replaced if intended for regular use. The spring mechanism would benefit from replacement or adjustment; however, the lorgnettes otherwise function well and present beautifully.
Whether displayed as a collectible object, used as a theatrical or costume accessory, or professionally restored for everyday wear, these lorgnettes offer wonderful versatility and unmistakable antique charm.
The lorgnettes measure approximately 4 3/4 Inches in length
