The sterling silver handle is adorned with a reindeer hallmark, imbuing it with a refined and elegant British aristocratic style. A brief search of its hallmarks suggests it dates back to before 1835. After a century, the glass lens has been beautifully restored by British craftsmen, appearing clear and pristine. The sterling silver handle retains its original historical character. A remarkably clear magnifying glass. A practical and charming piece, we highly recommend it to you :) https://antique.haha.tw/img/2023-0115/2023_0110_a10.jpg https://antique.haha.tw/img/2023-0115/2023_0110_a11.jpg https://antique.haha.tw/img/2023-0115/2023_0110_a12.jpg https://antique.haha.tw/img/2023-0115/2023_0110_a13.jpg https://antique.haha.tw/img/2023-0115/2023_0110_a14.jpg 【Dimensions】Length 12.5 x Width 8 x Height 0.3 cm 【Materials】British Sheffield / A.H.
