gallery

An elevated frame/bracket on the inside of a monocle, allowing the wearer to slot the monocle easily. The gallery holds the monocle away from the eye, preventing the eyelashes from jarring. Monocles with galleries are far more expensive, but they offer optimum comfort.

"Say, Charles, you're looking quite rich today!"
"Yes, my new monocle has a custom gallery!"
