Eyeglasses are a type of eyeglasses that use a handle to position them in front of the eyes. "Handle glasses, worn by ladies," indicates their preferred use by women. The origin of the word could be linked to the way one stares when wearing them, which could give the impression of an insolent, haughty, or brazen attitude.
This object is unique in its materials and period, as it dates from the 19th century, made of patinated and gilded bronze with inlaid mother-of-pearl.
