Description

This collection of antique spectacles and goggles, complete with their original cases, offers a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of eyewear from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Each pair varies in design, from delicate wire-rimmed spectacles to more robust goggles, which were likely used in industrial or possibly even early automotive settings. The lenses and frames show the patina of age and use, while the cases are crafted from materials ranging from hardened leather to textured metal, indicating their purpose and era. This assortment is not only a collector’s treasure but also a remarkable historical artifact that highlights the progress and practicality of vision aids through time. Ideal for collectors of medical antiques or vintage fashion accessories, these pieces provide both aesthetic charm and a tangible connection to the past.
