An eloquent example of the purest Parisian optical spirit, exquisite design mixed with top quality manufacture and exotic materials, realized in the 80′ s by the elusive “Monsieur-Paris”, some of the rarest frames, very much sought after by collectors and wearers alike. Extremely limited “Amberine” collection, size 135-5718, stem to stem inside width 140mm (5.5 inches). Entirely hand made reticulated Baltic amber French acetate ultra-light frame (weighing only 21 grams, lenses included), elegantly complemented with Gold plated temple stems, equipped with high performance hinge systems. In impeccable NOS, unused condition, presenting proper markings, comes with original soft pouch (very rare and much appreciated by collectors). Fitted with factory clear demo lenses that can be replaced with either prescription or sun lenses, for a super trendy look. “Monsieur Lunettes-Paris” although an ephemeral presence upon the optical world’s stage, their very few editions had an everlasting effect upon the fashion industry, their designs becoming sources of inspiration for the up and coming new “maitre lunettiers” (eyeglass master makers) such as Jean Francois Rey, Alain Mikli, A Garighian, later to become “sacred monsters” of the trade. Thus, the “Monsieur” frames, thanks to their original and classy design, add to that the rarity factor due to the highly limited editions, have gained in value as collectibles, but more so as wearable pieces of Optical history. Truly a work of optical Art, a frame that is unique in its design, a super trendy look for the wearer that likes to stand out in the crowd, in one word… Note: We will replace the nose-pads with new ones if needed, also, the temple stems can be easily reshaped at the optician during the lens replacement.
