Description: This is a super Antique Stanhope Charm in the form of Binoculars which is in good condition with just a little age-related wear from handling and use. The Stanhope is in working order and is a view of Napoleon 1st Coffin within a Cathedral. Please note: The UK 20p coin seen in a photo isn’t offered for sale, we’ve placed it next to the item so you can determine the size in relation to it. Stanhopes are optical devices that enable the viewing of microphotographs and they were invented by Rene Dagron in 1857. He bypassed the need for an expensive microscope to view the microscopic photographs by attaching the microphotograph at the end of a modified Stanhope lens. The photo is the size of a pinhead and has to be held up to a light and close to one's eye to be able to view it. Please take a look at the photos to evaluate the condition for yourself as they form part of the description and if you wish to ask us anything about the item then please do not hesitate to contact us. We have many other collectable items for sale at affordable prices, please feel free to take a look.
