Auction of Mahatma Gandhi’s spectacles in Britain, already bid for £ 6000

0

The online auction of gold plated glasses used by Mahatma Gandhi is going on in the UK. He is believed to have gifted these circular glasses in the early 1900s. Its bid can go from 10,000 to 15,000 pounds. Gandhi is
considered synonymous with round-frame spectacles.




Quoting East Bristol Auction House in southwest England, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the spectacles were of historical importance. Operator of the auction house Andy Stow said that the seller of the glasses found it interesting, but had no value for it, so asked to sell it. Stowe said that when we evaluated it and told him he was about to fall from his chair. This is an interesting auction story.



A bid of £ 6,000 has already been made for the online auction of this spectacle. The father of the eyeglass seller said it was his uncle’s gift when he worked at British Petroleum in South Africa between 1910 and 1930. Stowe said that this could be Gandhi’s early spectacles, when he was in South Africa.
