The machine age certainly doesn't light a candle to the art of true craftsmanship. An impeccably made eye glass case with gilt gold trim & hand tooling border & back stamped "Made In Italy" brings an elegant touch of glass to the well appointed desk. Not intended for today's overtly supersized eye glasses, but best for readers & trim line styles with a mouth 2.5" W & .6" H. We also find it a brilliant storage vessel for those fine pens. Armani glasses not included!
