CLASSIC VINTAGE GOLD IS2 RIMLESS 3 PIECE FRAMES

 

 Measurements

POSTED FOR JENNIFER'S CONSIDERATION

These classic gold rimless 3 piece antique eyeglasses are in mint condition and ready for prescription lenses or sunglasses. The bridge is marked ''IS2'' and the glasses are otherwise unmarked. Though not indicated by the markings, it's a good bet the frame is 12 karat gold-filled, as are most from the period. Another indicator is the lack of any corrosion or greening.

They're unused antique stock, never worn, never fitted. The temples have little ball finials and a pronounced spring you can almost hear. You'll notice the screws are uncut, the way they came from the maker. Your optician will cut and file them to length after fitting your lenses. Wonderful frames in mint condition, ready to go.

How to measure for vintage frames.

Please note that the lenses shown here are for display only. You are purchasing the bridge, temples, hinges and screws. Everything you need for a pair of glasses – just add your own lenses! Rimless frames allow you to pick the shape of your lens - oval, round, octagonal, you name it. The lens and overall width dimensions listed are for the display lenses only. Your own measurements will be determined by your choice of lens. Remember that temples are always measured their full length, hinge to tip, as though they were straightened out. Why? Because they're adjustable, so measurements to the bend will vary based on who wore the frame. Also remember that temples can be changed, so if this length isn't quite right for you, let me know - I may have a matching pair! Lens and bridge measurements are from lens edge to lens edge. Hinge to hinge is measured from screw to screw.

I describe any flaws found while cleaning, but there are no problems to report with this pair. (If you disagree with my assessment, send them back for a full refund including the shipping paid, too!) I'm thorough about condition so there are no surprises and can honestly say these glasses are in mint condition. They'll make great everyday glasses or some very cool sunglasses.
