Opera, which incorporates many elements of spoken theatre, such as acting, scenery and costumes and sometimes dance has been extremely popular since many decades. Thousands of people remain eager to view the performance typically given in an opera house by renowned opera artists.
The audiences are from all the class and background of the society. In order to make the onstage performance more visible and enjoyable it was conceived to find a compact way of magnifying it. Scientists found a way to combine telescopic lenses with stereoscopic prisms and invented a method by which a clear three dimensional view of the stage was available. Thus, opera glass was invented which changed the overall scenario of viewing opera performances.
These glasses are specially designed to have a broad field of vision which enables the audience to see the stage as a whole and enjoy the performance with great details and clarity. They come in a variety of colors and styles, including some that resemble standard binoculars or opera binoculars. With the different styles, designs and colors available, opera glasses rapidly became status symbols.
People started discovering methods to make the glasses much more ornate and stylish too. Many of the opera glasses were studded with precious gems to give it an elegant look. The glasses soon became an accessory that told a lot about the owners social status and sense of style. Many glasses came along with elaborate cases made of precious metals or that were highly enameled.
People who went to enjoy the opera are delighted to carry their opera glasses along with them. Some of these glasses even have lights which enable the audience to go through the performance list. There are also several variations of the opera glasses that became the choice of the people and are demanded heavily. They included the opera glasses with a handle that allow holding the glasses up to your face. There is also a folding version which enables the glasses to be collapsed and stored in a purse or other case.
There are many online stores today, which provide the facility to purchase these elegant and delightful opera glasses from the comforts of your home. With the help of the online stores you can easily select from the various options available. You can select a glass according to your taste and preference and enjoy a lifetime experience of watching the opera with minute details of the performance, artistes movement and gestures.
