Vintage 1930s French Magnifying Glass in Leather Pouch

Vintage 1930s French magnifying glass in leather pouch

A vintage French magnifying glass from the 1930s, with a folding handle that allows it to be stored neatly in its accompanying leather pouch. Both practical and characterful, it is a fine example of an everyday instrument from the period.

With its aged appearance and compact design, this piece would make a thoughtful gift for a science enthusiast, a collector of curiosities or anyone with an appreciation for vintage instruments.

After many decades, the magnifying glass remains in worn vintage condition, showing authentic signs of age and use. Over the years, it has developed a lovely patina that adds to its character and appeal. Please note that the lens has a small chip, as shown in the photographs.

The leather pouch has been carefully treated with leather conditioner and antique wax to nourish the leather and enhance its aged appearance.
