Vintage Viennaline 1133 20 Optyl Butterfly Sunglasses Olive Honey Amber Austria

About this item

A vintage pair of women's Viennaline sunglasses in a soft, oversized butterfly shape. The front is translucent olive-honey Optyl with a darker brown line tracing the inside of each rim, and the wide flared outer corners let the metal hinge plates show through. The temples are slim silver-tone metal with olive-grey translucent ear tips. The lenses are a light amber-brown tint.

The inside of the temples is marked "optyl" with the Optyl logo and "VIENNALINE" on one side, and "FRAME AUSTRIA", "1133 20", "53□14" and "130" on the other.

Brand heritage

Viennaline was an Austrian eyewear brand closely tied to Optyl, the light, heat-mouldable material developed in Austria in the 1960s and used for many of the best-known fashion frames of the 1970s and 1980s. Austrian-made Viennaline Optyl frames are sought after for their bold shapes, rich translucent colours and light weight.
