Such wonderful things get left for us by makers before us. Using materials that are available these folks turn ordinary objects into wonders.
I have to offer a well made magnifying glass. The glass is set in brass with rubber seal. I believe it is 5x but there are no markings. The glass has 2 minor specks in the glass that are not a hinderance and proved impossible to photograph. The looking glass screws into the horn base.
The horn is mostly satin black with streaks of a pearl white color and some thin gold streaks. They tend to be most visible as the light shines on the horn. The magnifying glass is approximately 15 1/2 inches in length. The horn ranges in thickness from 2 1/2 inches down. The diameter of the looking glass is 5 inches.
This glass works very well and gives a clear view.
