Description

The glasses are sculpted with a structured, low-profile rectangular silhouette featuring clean, flat-top lines that deliver a sharp and geometric facial definition. A definitive hallmark of this design is the structural “floating lens” concept: the clear display lenses are suspended within an intentional perimeter gap, completely detached from the bottom and outer edges of the frame. This architecture creates a dramatic, negative-space cutout effect where the lens appears to float freely inside the heavy acetate shield. The entire frame is rendered in a premium, ultra-polished cellulose acetate featuring an intense, high-gloss solid cherry red colorway. The vibrant red tone offers a brilliant pop of color, infusing an artistic, retro-intellectual edge into any contemporary wardrobe. This frame is an incredible vintage find preserved in flawless condition.
