The Magnifying Glass has been a desktop staple for many years and original designs date back as far as 13th Century. They were often favoured by fine gentlemen for reading maps and soon became a symbol of adventure and intrigue. During the 18th Century, magnifying glass designs took a decorative approach with handles being crafted in attractive materials such as natural horn and crystal being used. Our magnifying glass collection is a celebration of this history, with our own designs in natural Buffalo horn, faceted glass and nickel.
