1970 Vintage Cat Eye (Black collar)
An iconic model from the 1950s, these black acetate cat-eye sunglasses are a testament to the bold style of the post-war era. With their curved frames and mineral green lenses, they reflect an era when women's eyewear became an accessory that affirmed their identity.
Their pointed shape, popularized by Hollywood actresses like Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly, draws inspiration from futuristic design and the atomic age's taste for feminine sophistication. The twisted temples add a rare detail, evoking the era's artisanal research in molded acetate.
A model probably made in France or Italy, at a time when eyewear workshops were competing in creativity, at the very beginning of industrial standardization.
