About this item

Vintage women's oversized butterfly sunglasses by Cazal, stamped "MOD.301". The translucent acetate front is marbled in coral pink, red and mint green, with the two rims sweeping across each other over the bridge in Cari Zalloni's signature crossed-X design. Fitted with flat sky-blue tinted lenses. Silver-tone stepped hinge blocks lead into Cazal's sculptural flat metal Z-shaped temples with a cut-out slot, finished with black temple tips. The engraved Cazal signature is on the temple and "MOD.301" is stamped on the inside. Comes with a tan Cazal pouch.

Brand heritage

Cazal was founded in 1975 in West Germany by designer Cari Zalloni (the name comes from CAri ZALloni). His bold, architectural frames made Cazal one of the defining eyewear houses of the late 1970s and 1980s, and the early models are now sought after by collectors.
