    Here are my other pair of antique Charles Chevalier Paris opera glasses from around the 1880 period. The case is missing the brass latch button and a piece of the interior lining. One of the eye pieces is slightly bent, but they're still a really cool item. They are wrapped with what appears to be Mother of Pearl. They still work great!!

      Hi, around 1880!
    3. jscott0363 jscott0363, 10 years ago
      Thanks Jewels!! I had always thought that, but wasn't quite sure. Even with the slightly dented eye piece, I still thought they were a fairly nice pair of opera glasses.

      Thanks kyratango!! I had always wondered about the age of these.

      Hope you are feeling good. Stopping by to love these or this. It's very cool! I've never been to an opera and probably never will but if I ever did I would so take this in there. Can you imagine? LOL

      I have a similar pair. They belonged to my great grandmother 1852-1926 and maybe to her mother 1820-1862, before her. They were big fans of the opera.
    18. jscott0363 jscott0363, 4 years ago
      That's awesome kwqd! I have a couple pair of Charles Chevalier opera glasses. The other pair I own are leather wrapped with their original leather case.
