Pristine Tortoise Shell & Aluminium Opera Glasses - Ross / London

1900 - 1920
Sold by Puckerings
Description

Quite clearly this wonderful pair of Opera Glasses have been tucked away for many years, having remained in such splendid condition.

The metalware is an early Aluminum, still retaining a good silver shine. They are clad with stunning Tortoiseshell with a bright shiny patina; the focus wheel and eye pieces are too made from shell, the later being signed by the London Opticians, Ross of London. The case is original, also marked with Ross from the smartest of London streets, Bond Street in Mayfair.

Quite exceptional in superb undamaged condition, measuring 4" x 2 3/4" extending to 3 5/8" when fully opened.

Item ID: 32143

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
