Thanks Chuck for putting up the link to the Pince Nez Renaissance. Quality pince nez mountings are no longer made. That is the bad news.
I've been wearing pince-nez all the time for the last six months. It is great! They are very comfortable and I receive a few compliments on them. Silicone nose pads make a world of difference. I've found eBay to be the best place to get pince nez. Fit can be tricky and it takes time to get a feel for what is right. Wherever you buy the mountings, make sure there is at least a seven day return policy for any reason. The whole process of getting pince nez takes a good deal of time and energy but the results are well worth it. Good luck.
