Large English Sterling Silver & Tortoise Shell Magnifying Glass - Pique Inlaid

1900 - 1920
Sold by Puckerings
Description

Probably one of the most decorative I have had in some time, this large Magnifying glass has the most superb sterling silver handle.

The front of the handle is inset with a glossy piece of Tortoiseshell with a very pretty pique inlay. All of this is surrounded with a raised border.

The handle is joined to the nickel framed glass with a pretty sterling ferrule, which is where the English hallmark can be found for Sheffield 1906. The magnifier is of course new (by Hilkinson), creating a clear, undamaged glass with a good magnification, making this a very usable desk accessory.

Excellent condition, measuring 8 3/4" long with a glass diameter measuring 4".

Item ID: 35020
