Every collection that’s aimed at improving your appearance, has to include whatever is the epitomy of it’s time in terms of design, production technology, unashamed flair, capturing the feeling of the era, accepting a pecking order of desirability & of course unquestionable authenticity. These effervescent sunglasses are a visual explanation of these ideas. You wouldn’t claim to be a gangster film buff & then admit that you never got around to watching the Godfather. This is the same thing. You cannot have a collection from this period & not have some lucite with glitter shades in your treasure chest. You can pretend that collecting is personal & not competitive, but it’s better to be honest with yourself, then go out & find the very best example of each category, & here it is. Combining the overriding favourites of the late 40s, ( the cat eye & the feminine wayfarer ) into one shape, transparent frame but in an unusual blue, glitter in strands not speckles, & executing a novel idea but in superior quality with metal arm interiors & real glass lenses. We conclude that these are for the collector or enthusiast who’s easily satisfied with the very best. Very good overall condition. No scratches on the lenses. Please note, whether you’re a vintage enthusiast whose gotten used to being spoiled by superior historical quality or not, glass is now a specialist product in todays market thats exponentially more expensive than plastics in exactly the same way as laminate vs wooden flooring/worktops etc Decent women’s medium size.
