Antique Lightweight Opera Binoculars with original case
No makers marks but I would assume that are French
The optics are in great condition focusing is as good as the day they were made.
Focusing is still smooth no scratching to optics
Brass and leather cased and black metal painted
although these are lightweight they are very robust and made to last
Lovely buying size ideal for the bag but still has great performance and decent magnification
Slight rubbing to the edges and a few small dents at the front which is to be expected considering these are over 100 years old
It shows they had a life and were used actively
Original soft leather case could use a bit of black polish
Case closes with a satisfying pop
These have not been messed about with nice original condition
The optics have some dust but are clear to view through
Comes from a smoke free home
This is a vintage item so will show signs of wear please look at all the photos as they are part of the listing description
