Vintage Charles Jourdan Paris 8871-O J167 Sunglasses Purple Black France 60mm

About this item

A striking pair of 1980s Charles Jourdan Paris sunglasses, made in France. The oversized, squared frame has a thick flat brow bar in a mottled purple, magenta and black finish that continues along the outside of the temples, over a glossy black lower frame. A small gold-tone Charles Jourdan logo sits on each temple near the hinge, and the inside of the temple carries a gold-tone "CHARLES JOURDAN Paris" plaque. The lenses are a soft rose-brown gradient, darker at the top and fading to pale pink at the bottom. The inside of the other temple is stamped "8871-O J 167" and "MADE IN FRANCE".
