Lafontaine Theatre Binoculars in Mother-of-Pearl
About the Item
Lafontaine theatre binoculars in mother-of-pearl. They are small, light and designed to provide an enlarged view at events such as operas, theatres and concerts. The frame is made of gold-plated metal, while the optical tubes are coated with lilac-coloured mother-of-pearl, giving a vibrant, fine finish. The focus is adjusted by means of a knurled centre wheel with a purplish hue.
Of French origin, this accessory is a reference to the Parisian tradition of making luxury theatre binoculars. The original case, made of fabric and leather, shows signs of wear over time.
Inscribed on the eyepiece: ‘18 Palais Royal 18, Lafontaine Ingr’.
