Polished Brass Desk Magnifier

A small brass lens for examining the details of the writing desk.

Compact and satisfyingly substantial, this polished brass desk magnifier rests directly over the page, bringing maps, letters, stamps, illustrations and fine print into closer view.

The rounded glass lens is framed in antiqued brass, giving an everyday optical tool the character of an older library or study object. At just over two inches across, it occupies very little room on the desk and can remain close at hand beside books, correspondence and writing instruments.

Selected by Boston Lore Studio for that particularly pleasing combination of usefulness, curiosity and old-world desk presence.
