About this item

A classic unused pair of 1950s French cat eye sunglasses signed "L&S" and "Frame France" on the temples. Glossy black acetate rises into pointed upswept wings decorated with small silver star rivets, the gray lenses are softly almond-shaped, and the temples have the sculpted wavy profile of the period. Perfect for a rockabilly or Hollywood look.

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. This frame carries the L&S maker's mark.
