About this item

A sleek, small-fit pair of 1950s French cat eye sunglasses in glossy black acetate with amber-brown lenses. The slim rectangular lenses sweep up into sharp outer wings decorated with twin silver star-shaped rivets, and the sculpted temples have a wavy profile typical of mid-century French frames.

Brand heritage

France, and above all the Jura frame-making town of Oyonnax, was the heart of European acetate eyewear in the 1950s. Unsigned French workshop frames of this era, marked only 'Frame France' or 'France', are prized today for their thick hand-finished acetate and bold mid-century shapes.
