A charming pair of antique wire-rim eyeglasses featuring an uncommon octagonal lens shape and traditional cable temples designed to wrap comfortably behind the ears. These glasses retain their original nose pads and come housed in a vintage fitted hard case lined with burgundy velvet. Also included is a handwritten note reading "Mother Morty's Glasses," adding a touch of family provenance and historical interest. The frames display a beautiful aged patina consistent with their age and use. Lenses are intact, though the prescription is unknown. The glasses have not been tested and are being sold as a vintage collectible.
