Antique Victorian Mother of Pearl & Chased Gold order Metal Eyeglass Telescoping Extender Holder ~ eyeglass extender, telescoping eyeglass holder

THIS IS A WONDERFUL GLIMPSE INTO THE VICTORIAN ERA WITH AN TELESCOPING EYEGLASS HOLDER EXTENDER USED FOR PLAYS, OPERAS AND SUCH WHEN SOMEONE WANTED TO GET A BETTER LOOK. THEY INSERT THEIR EYEGLASSES INTO THE CUT GLASS HOLDERS WHEN EXTENDED AND THEN HOLD IT UP TO SEE THE VIEW CLOSER. THIS DOES NOT HAVE ANY STAMPS OF THE GOLD CONTENT AND I HAVE NOT HAD IT CHECKED BUT USUALLY ITEMS OF THIS ERA WERE GOLD order FILLED OR GOLD PLATED WHICH THIS LOOKS LIKE. IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND HAS LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL ENGRAVING IN THE GOLD TELESCOPING STICK.
