Before the days of sunglasses, there were tinted glasses, believed by some to improve vision, but also worn for the sake of fashion by others.

These gorgeous amber tinted eyeglasses by well known maker "Willson" date from around the 1910s to 1920s. They have wire frames that are flexible to fit a range of sizes. I

The lenses are tinted but are not magnifying or prescription, just glass.

Measurements

Approx 4. 5" across from hinge to hinge.

Condition

Great condition for their age and very wearable. The lenses are in good condition with minor scuffs and scratches that do not affect wear, and the metal frames have some patina.

These are wearable with care (the lenses are made of glass, and therefore do not meet modern safety regulations).

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Houston, TX.
