What's this I see? Magnetic magnifying glass shaped like a pair of brown spectacles recalling glasses from the 1940s and 50s. This magnifying glass is handy for anyone who reaches for their glasses whenever there is small print to read. 'Temple glasses', which were worn rather than held, were developed sometime before 1727 - but they became popular from the early 20th century when people discovered the practicality in keeping your hands free. Keep this magnifying glass close in case you need to look for the fine details.

Good quality. Great novelty gift, they do work. Only fault I have is that they are for right handed people!! I’m left handed, so they can be a bit awkward to use. Otherwise very happy with the product

The brown glasses are an amusing lorgnette of the kind that Hinge & Brackett might weild. They usefully attach to any metal surface, being magnetic, and are not easily lost. More seriously, they are excellent magnifiers and can be used to read small print, e.g. medical instructions.
