Steampunk goggles: a typical element of the Victorian era
Goggles were once used by men and women who worked on locomotives to avoid coal fumes in their eyes or welders who had to protect their eyes from electric arcs. The Victorian style and the inventions of the steam engine have given rise to many vocations among the current generation. The Victorian era was a fascinating time when the only limits were the mind's. Many wooden and iron machines were created at that time, like the first helicopters and cars. These inventions would not have been possible without the help of these special goggles, indispensable for the safety of the workers.
