    Hi. I found this very ornate magnifying glass at a local thrift store. It haS four chips of diamond or rhinestone; one for each eye and two on the bottom. Any information on this item is greatly appreciated.

      dav2no1, That eBay listing. Dear oh dear. >8-0

      dmbarnes83, It's cool, and Google Lens found a couple more, but no real provenance:

      This one is decorated a bit differently, and its purveyor describes it as "Egyptian":

      RARE Vintage Egyptian Giraffe Magnify Glass Magnifying Glass With Diamond Eyes Lot. 6 1/2" long RARE egyptian magnifying glass.

      Extremely heavy for size glass is very clear and is in great shape. Very nice item rope design around outside of glass.

      Thanks dav2no1 and keramikos for the comments and references. Thanks for correcting me with the Zebra instead of Giraffi.
