Antique American sterling silver openwork design portable folding glasses Ronietto

Introducing the antique Ronniet.

The Ronyettes are folding glasses that were worn by ladies of the upper class.
It seems that it was also used as a fashion accessory by hanging it around the neck on a chain.

This is a sterling silver ronniet that appears to have been made in America.
The handle is beautifully decorated with a scroll pattern.
The lens part unfolds when you slide it with your hand.

We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
