About this item

A large original round frame from 1950s France in warm light amber tortoise acetate, fitted with classic bottle-green lenses and pinned with riveted hinges. Generous size and clean circular lines suit both men and women.

Brand heritage

France has a long eyewear tradition centred on the Jura town of Oyonnax, which became the country's frame-making capital. By the 1950s French workshops were producing hand-finished acetate frames in bold shapes, and original mid-century French frames are prized today for their material quality and design.
