The magnifying glass telescopes up and down. It angles by adjusting a clever ball-joint. A gift with excellent provenance, an accessory that delivers. Solid brass with duotone bronze finish, this is a must-have for any desk.

Solid brass with duotone bronze finish, this is a must-have for any desk.
