From AJU Lang Antiques
"One of Newark's earliest jewellers was James Madison Durand, whose great-grandfather worked in gold and silver in 'Jefferson Village,' or Maplewood, as early as 1756. The young Durand is particularly interesting because of the route he took to become a businessman, starting as an apprentice, then working at the jewellery bench in an already established firm. Finally, he established his own business. A fledgling businessman in the 1830s, Durand, by the time of his death in 1895, had become one of America's leading jewellery manufacturers. His success was attributed by one of his contemporaries as 'plodding work, careful attention to details, vigilant and constant attention to the business, and a superior skill in design and workmanship.' Durand and Co. was located at 49 Franklin St., with salesrooms in New York City at 9 Maiden Lane. Eventually, Durand and Co. employed 125 men".

Antique Platinum Art Deco Lorgnette Folding Eye Glasses with Lariat Chain
Located in London, GB
We are proud to introduce these spectacular platinum Art Deco lorgnette folding eye glasses, that are now part of our diverse antique jewellery collection.
The magnificent eyeglasses feature an intricately designed elongated octagonal frame, showcasing elaborately detailed filigree work that highlights the delicate and unparalleled craftsmanship of the 19th Century. They are complemented by 2.2cm long tapered handle, beautifully designed with meticulous art deco motifs inlaid with approximately 0.15ct of diamonds, attached to one side to easily hold them to the eyes.
These stunning glasses are both practical and elegant thanks to the hinged bridge that allows them to fold neatly and become a monocle or magnifying glass.
Accompanying these unique folding spectacles is a matching platinum lariat chain measuring 30 inches in length, with a 2 inch extension where the glasses attach, so they can be worn around the neck, adding a touch of sophistication to any ensemble. The chain itself is designed with small, ornate links and two spring lock clasps, one on each end, and decorated with 10 eight cut diamonds, weighing approximately 0.20ct combined, echoing the meticulous attention to detail seen in the glasses.
