Item Glasses Spectacles Eye Sight 95 7 A pair of small, wire ...These folding spectacles with a wooden case likely date from the late 19th to early 20th century, a period when compact, portable eyewear was popular among travellers, scholars, and everyday users. The protective wooden case suggests they were designed for durability and portability — ideal for being kept in a pocket, bag, or writing case. This style was often used by elderly men or professionals such as teachers, clergy, or tradespeople. These spectacles reflect both the craftsmanship and utilitarian design of personal optical aids during this era.A pair of small, wire-framed spectacles with oval lenses, designed to fold into a cylindrical wooden case. The spectacles have thin, silver-coloured wire rims with a central bridge and no visible arms, suggesting they may be pince-nez style (pinch-on-the-nose) or folding nose spectacles. The spectacles are stored in a two-part wooden case, with a removable cap that slots over the open end for protection. The wood is smooth and polished, with visible grain and a natural brown finish.95 7medical item, glasses, spectacles, eye sight -
