These necklaces are created with vintage 1940s, 1950s optical test lenses (NOT new, shown in the last pic), embellished with original Art Deco brooches and dress clips. They are very long to facilitate reading a menu, for example. I've sold dozens and they make wonderful gifts for the gal who can never find (or doesn't want to use) her readers. They all magnify, strengths vary. I can shorten them a bit upon request, but I do not advise any shorter than about 28", no closures.
