Brass Carved Magnifying Glass with Handle

About the Item

Brass magnifying glass with handle - a wonderfully functional, very large and heavy piece. The brass surround is quite nice and the handle could be wood, but also may be resin - either way, the piece is of substantial weight and quality - and works very well... Definitely a good piece for someone that frequently uses a magnifying glass on larger items, like books or papers as the size holds a lot of words...
