About this item

A bold pair of 1970s women's sunglasses by the German eyewear maker Marwitz, model 3025, colour 208. The thick, rounded-square oversized front is cut from translucent olive-green acetate that glows golden-khaki in the light, with darker olive edges, a sculpted keyhole-free bridge and grey gradient lenses fading from smoky grey at the top to light at the bottom. Textured gold-tone metal plaques are set into the outer temples beside the hinges, with MARWITZ stamped on the inside.

Brand heritage

Marwitz was a respected West German eyewear house whose hand-finished acetate and metal frames were sold through opticians across Europe, and in the 1970s it also produced frames together with Zeiss. Its oversized acetate sunglasses of that decade are sought after today for their quality and their unmistakable 70s silhouettes.
