For some nicely executed versions of these specs, Medieval Design is the place
to look. They have them in wood, or for some really gorgeous bling, buy them in
bone.

See

about halfway down the page.

In reality, it's unlikely that these would have been worn on a continual basis,
but rather while an individual was reading or inspecting something.
