Description: Add a piece of history to your eyewear collection. The silver octagonal frames exude Victorian charm and are made of durable metal. These original, pre-1890 glasses have a 200 power and come with their own vintage case. Although they are probably 175 years old, they are still usable for daily wear. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of eyewear history. Comes in a metal snap close/open metal case. Inside the lid is a hand written note from another century stating "Thomas Egglestons film glasses". Maker's mark is stamped on the earpiece "HAWES" a London eyeglass maker. I used these on and for eye correction AND dramatic effect. People really notice these. They look like they might be plated silver they have kind of a tarnish look to them. The earpieces extend by pulling them out and they function perfectly.
