Nathalie & Kimberley 049



Relaxed posing by Nathalie and Kimberly in "Celia" glasses made by Rodenstock in the mid 1980's when white frames were somewhat fashionable for a few years. The frames are similar but not identical. Nathalie wears a pair of varifocal glasses acquired in Germany a couple of years ago. Their first owner was probably a lady in her early fifties who did not need glasses in her younger days but developed both hyperopia and presbyopia during her forties. The glasses shown by Kimberley are a bit smaller and their first owner must have used them only in the evenings when her contact lenses gave her trouble. The lenses are about minus three which is regarded the boundary between frequent and fulltime wear. The glasses looked absolutely new when I bought them at a fair, some fifteen years ago.
