About this item
A striking geometric butterfly frame in translucent pearl-cream acetate with double-rivet hinges, fitted with eye-catching gradient lenses that fade from blue at the top to yellow at the bottom. The inner temple is stamped "FRANCE S.M".
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.
