The frame shape, which represents the mid-century, features a horn rim beloved by the Beatniks.
This line, which Tart's original design was infused with, still stands the test of time.
Enjoy the luxurious details that incorporate the American craftsmanship of the time, such as the amber fabric, which is unique to vintage items and shows different expressions depending on the light, and the bold horn rim shape that protrudes on both sides, created by hand polishing that is no longer possible to imitate today.


*Perfect deadstock with no problems in storage condition.
Comes with an original paper sleeve that shows the New York address as proof of authenticity.


The realistic vintage frames that you can feel when you hold them in your hands have an authentic texture and charm that cannot be matched by the many copies and replicas on the market.
