Here's a look at an antique Ronnette.
Ronnette were a type of folding eyeglasses with two lenses, used by upper-class ladies.
It seems that it was also used as a fashion accessory, worn around the neck with a chain or something similar.
This is a pair of silver earrings with beautiful Art Nouveau style decorations.
The mechanism for the lens to pop out is good, but the part that opens the folded lens has become weak, so you need to help it out a little with your hand when using it.
There is a ring on the handle so that you can attach a chain or other accessories.
I hope this lovely little dress will add color to your everyday life!
