About this item

An authentic pair of vintage Nina Ricci Paris sunglasses, handmade in France around the late 1970s to 1980s. The large butterfly frame is in translucent champagne-crystal acetate with a fine white line along the upper rim, and the outer corners are decorated with diagonal gold-and-brown stripe accents. Gold "N" monograms sit on the sides of the temples. Brown gradient lenses go from deep brown at the top to a soft tint below.

Brand heritage

Nina Ricci is a Paris couture house founded in 1932 by Maria "Nina" Ricci and her son Robert Ricci. The house became famous for romantic, feminine fashion and for the L'Air du Temps fragrance. Its French-made eyewear of the 1970s and 1980s, often marked "Handmade France", is collected today for its oversized glamorous shapes.
