Description

Pair of eyeglasses with clear glass lenses cut in a modified octagonal shape. Bottom half of lenses have been ground as if for bifocals. Lenses are rimless. Metal nosebridge with attached nose rests of unknown material. Arms and rounded ear pieces are of a similar metal to that of nosebridge. One arm may have been replaced, as the fine chased designs on the outside of the arms do not match. "AC ^0 12KGF" stamped on left arm and bridge. "PV10-12kg FEULVUE-N" on other arm.
