A rare metal Wellington frame
from New Jersey Optical.
This is the model loved by David Bowie during his lifetime.
Featuring the 12K gold-filled (12KGF) finish
typical of the era, it boasts high-end quality
that will never fade.
Enjoy the distinct mid-century single-bridge design
and the luxurious details packed into
its simple aesthetic.



*
A beautiful piece in excellent storage condition,
with no discoloration on the clear nose pads.
Please note that due to the chrome-like nature of the surface,
some minor scuffs and a vintage feel are to be expected.



Please enjoy the good old American craftsmanship
that cannot be replicated even with today's technology.
