About this item

An original 1980s Cazal 901 from the Targa Design line, in a bright gold-tone metal frame with the oversized teardrop aviator shape that made the 901 a hip-hop and luxury icon. The frame carries the sculpted double-bar T-bridge, a clear amber-yellow nose shield and fine perimeter screws, with grey gradient lenses printed "TARGA design Cazal" in the upper corner of one lens. Supplied with its original tan suede Cazal pouch.

Brand heritage

Cazal was founded in Germany in 1975 by Austrian designer Cari Zalloni (the name is CAri ZALloni) with business partner Günter Böttcher. Before Cazal, Zalloni had designed for Carrera/Optyl. Bold Cazal frames became part of 1980s hip-hop style, and original West German pieces from that decade are keenly collected.
