Hi, I have an old pair of pinc-nez and I'm not sure if they're gold or not. On the nose pads is a very faint stamp of what I think looks like a larus bird - looks like a stork. It has a case with the makers name on it and I know they were in business between 1907-13 and probably much later. The glasses are a kind of rose…

Hi, I have an old pair of pinc-nez and I'm not sure if they're gold or not.

On the nose pads is a very faint stamp of what I think looks like a larus bird - looks like a stork. It has a case with the makers name on it and I know they were in business between 1907-13 and probably much later.

The glasses are a kind of rose gold colour and not a gold colour.

Can't seem to find any info about the stamp. There's no other marking on them.

Any ideas?
