Pince-nez. White metal (nickel?) frame. Triple-bar telescopic bridge. Pivoted plaquets with cork pads. Horseshoe-shaped rimless opaque side visors hinged at sides, with glossy outer surface. Horseshoe-shaped eye rims, glazed with dark smoke-tinted lenses. Together with a black leather-coverd pince-nez case that is nonetheless probably unrelated (listed separately).
