    Description

    I don't know what the base metal is, but I am fairly certain it is rhodium plated.  They are very shiny and the finish is in excellent condition for age and use.
    I do not know if they ever had lenses fitted in them.
    They would make a lovely pendant, hanging from a long period chain.
    Circa 1910-1930.  Mechanism works perfectly.
    The width from side to side is approximately 3-11/16"  Each lens frame measures 1-3/8" x 1-1/8" (outside measurements).
    Handle measures 1-3/8"
    There is a tiny mark impressed on either side of the nose piece, but I can't make it out.  I tried to take a picture of the mark, but it is just not clear. (last picture).
    Please examine all pictures.  Sold AS IS.
