About this item
Unused new-old-stock 1950s French cat eye in glossy layered black acetate with a small pearly accent bar at each upper corner and bold rose-red lenses. Riveted hinges and sculpted temples with rounded tips.
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.
