Gold (12KGF) combination [Loncer]
Beautiful frame shape with a strong mid-century feel and iconic visuals.
A masterpiece that is beyond reproach, both in terms of quality and comfort.
A rare early model with solid black finish and wide temple ends.
Many replicas and copies of this model have been made, but this model features exquisite details that were only possible in this era, such as the hand-polished rim shape that protrudes on both sides, which was unique to the technology of the time, and the gold-filled process, which would be too costly with today's technology.

The pearl shell colored nose pads have not discolored and are in good condition despite being stored for nearly half a century, making this a beautiful deadstock item.
These vintage frames have a real feel and appeal that cannot be achieved by the many copies and replicas available.
