18th Century Eyeglasses

We carry antique spectacles from 1580 to 1790. We often have examples by the early makers such as Benjamin Martin, Adams, and Edward Scarlett. We sometimes have scissor glasses (1785-1815). We have nose spectacles and every now and then leather spectacles. For period cases, visit our eyeglass case catalogue.
