These handsome spectacles provide a clean & sharp alternative to the standard gold or silver option which is the mainstay of glasses from this period. The simple tortoise coloured surround gives the lift they need to set them apart from the also rans as does the fact they are not exactly round or oval. They have coiled ear bends that ensure they stay in the position you want them to. The condition is clean enough to satisfy anyone who has an issue with wearing something too vintagey. What we really have to say on behalf of these glasses is that the association of ‘antique’ is invariably interpreted as something in the realms of the fuddy duddy eccentric, but in this case they are firmly rooted in something genuinely cool that even youngsters could readily recognise & this is partly because that association has not been lost on the copycat re-inventors of ‘heritage’, from Ralph Lauren to Armani to Oliver peoples & back again. These simple glasses have an authenticity those companies could only dream of. Used in very good overall condition. There is a repair { last picture } which has been so skillfully done that it very likely makes the area stronger than it was in the first instance. The lenses need replacing with your prescription. The width dimensions are relatively small for a man so please compare with your own glasses size first. However I would say they are not in the embarrassing undersized range & this is mainly because the bridge width is wider than usual & maintains the eyes at the centre of the dimensions instead of towards the sides. frame width (outside widest point): 112mm frame height: 38mm bridge width: 27mm inside hinge to hinge: 118mm Returns accepted.
