Dating to the early twentieth century, c.1900/1920, this is an antique cast brass linen thread counter, of course usable to magnify whatever you wish.

Heavy solid cast brass with a good undamaged magnifying glass, professionally cleaned and polished, restoring it to it's former glory.

Rather more special, this example is marked "British Made" and "Inch"; most are unmarked.

While folded, it measures 2" x 1 1/2" x 1/2".
