Magnifier for sewing (Higham Hill E17)
Gifted
You sit with your sewing, mending, needlework and, by looking at it through the glass it is well magnified. So useful if your close sight is deteriorating. It can straighten up to store behind a curtain or somewhere. It needs batteries for the light and I am not sure if that still works, but it's not essential.
