About this item
An unused pair of 1960s Italian club-style sunglasses. The bold glossy black acetate brow has sharp swept upper corners with small gold-tone arrow accents, set over thin gold-tone lower rims and softly rectangular smoke grey-green lenses. Broad tapering temples carry original metal plaques, one stamped "MADE IN ITALY".
Brand heritage
Browline "club" frames - a heavy brow over a metal lower rim - were a defining look of the 1950s and 60s, and Italian makers produced some of the boldest versions. This unbranded Italian pair is a period piece from that era.
