This pair is an excellent example of high-end "Made in France" acetate craftsmanship, produced in small batches in Morez, in the Jura region, a historic bastion of French eyewear. A true vintage gem, in short.

Between feminine silhouette and graphic design

The LOLA 616 model was launched at a time when Jean Lafont was reinterpreting icons of the past with a very graphic approach. In the 2000s, the Lafont house was inspired as much by the Parisian couture of the 50s (a time when cat-eye glasses symbolized triumphant feminine elegance) as by emerging industrial and digital design .

But what is fascinating about this pair is the side branch in the shape of a wave or feminine curve . Some internally at Lafont claim that this curve would be inspired by a stylized female profile silhouette , a sort of discreet signature of femininity , visible only when looking at the glasses from the side.

This artistic intention, typical of French refinement, was not intended to be immediately readable , but to create a complicity with those who know how to observe. It is a way of making the frame both utilitarian and narrative.

Detailed description

Entre silhouette féminine et design graphique

Le modèle LOLA 616 a été lancé à une époque où Jean Lafont réinterprétait les icônes du passé avec une approche très graphique. Dans les années 2000, la maison Lafont s’inspire autant de la couture parisienne des années 50 (époque où les lunettes cat-eye symbolisent l’élégance féminine triomphante) que du design industriel et numérique naissant.

Mais ce qui est fascinant avec cette paire, c’est la branche latérale en forme de vague ou de courbe féminine. Certains affirment en interne chez Lafont que cette courbe serait inspirée d’une silhouette de profil féminin stylisée, une sorte de signature discrète de la féminité, visible uniquement en regardant la lunette de côté.

Cette intention artistique, typique du raffinement à la française, n’était pas destinée à être immédiatement lisible, mais à créer une complicité avec celles et ceux qui savent observer. C’est une manière de rendre la monture à la fois utilitaire et narrative.

How do I know if a frame will fit me?

If the size does not fit you:

Each product sheet details the exact dimensions of the frame (width, height, nose distance, temple length). You can compare these measurements with a pair you already own. Also consider visiting your local optician who will help you adjust the frame to your face (in most cases this is enough even if the size is not exactly right for you). If it really doesn't fit, returns are accepted within 15 days.

If the style doesn't suit you or you've changed your mind:

Returns are accepted within 15 days. So if you change your mind, just send them back!

Can I have corrective lenses fitted?

Yes and no.... Vision Janine only offers non-prescription sunglasses. Our models are designed as fashion accessories with a strong visual identity. However, you can order the frame and visit any optician of your choice to have your Janine glasses fitted and lenses adjusted to your prescription.

What are the guarantees?

Our glasses come with a 3-month warranty against any restoration defects. The sunglasses are brand new and CE certified.

Is there a box?

Yes. Each Janine pair of glasses comes with a matching case, a microfiber cleaning cloth, and a presentation box. If the original case is still in good condition, it will be delivered with the frame in addition to ours, but unfortunately, this isn't always the case...
About

What does Vision Janine offer?

Vision Janine offers high-end vintage sunglasses, carefully refurbished in France. Each piece is unique, selected for its style, rarity, or history.

What is a refurbished vintage eyeglass?

This is an authentic frame from years past (usually from the 60s to 2000s), cleaned, fully restored for a complete refurbishment and fitted with new "optician" quality sun lenses, i.e. the same quality of lenses as at a high-end optician.

Are the glasses authentic?

Yes. All our frames are original and carefully selected from collectors, former opticians, or forgotten stock. Authenticity is verified before being put up for sale.

Where do your glasses come from?

Our models come from all over the world: France, Italy, Germany, Japan... always with a focus on quality and originality. The origin is always specified.

Where and by whom are your glasses restored?

The restoration is entirely carried out in France, in our workshop in Villefranche sur Saône near Lyon, by Adèle, co-founder of Janine, trained by eyewear artisans specializing in vintage and the best craftsmen in France. This process includes cleaning, polishing, adjustment (redressing) and replacement of lenses, as well as the replacement of consumables (nose pads, sleeves, screws, etc.). It is a demanding process that takes between 1 hour (minimum) and 3 hours for the most complex or damaged frames. Today, Adèle's experience with vintage frames makes her one of the few specialists in France in the restoration and repair of eyewear.

Are glasses eco-friendly?

Absolutely. By repurposing existing frames rather than producing new ones, we contribute to circular, elegant, and environmentally friendly fashion.

How are your prices set?

Our prices reflect the rarity of the model, the brand, the original condition, the complexity of the restoration and the quality of the materials (acetate, Optyl, gold metal, etc.).

The complexity of solar glass can also impact the price.

How do you choose your models?

The curation we offer is studied according to current trends.
We prioritize pieces with remarkable designs from iconic fashion houses or independent eyewear makers. Each model is selected for its aesthetic potential, comfort, and good structural condition.

Can I reserve a model?

We do not yet offer a reservation service. Since our models are unique, we recommend that you don't wait too long if you fall in love with one.

Do you buy glasses again?

This can happen, especially for rare and authentic vintage models, but we prefer to use our own supply networks. If you have one or more frames to offer, you can always send us photos at contact@visionjanine.com
