Bidspirit auction | Three Pairs of Vintage Christian


Three Pairs of Vintage Christian Dior Sunglasses, Metal and Optyl - This lot features three pairs of vintage Christian Dior sunglasses showcasing iconic house styles. The first pair is a modified aviator design in gold-tone metal with a decorative textured brow bar and temples, featuring gradient rose-to-clear lenses and Optyl components. The second pair consists of oversized, rounded rectangular frames crafted from marbled forest green, reddish-brown, and amber Optyl, finished with light brown lenses and prominent gold-tone ”CD” logos at the temples. The third pair is a classic oval silhouette in solid black acetate with dark grey lenses and inset gold-tone ”CD” hardware. Dimensions: approximately 5.5 to 6 inches wide. A collection of three vintage Christian Dior sunglasses in metal and Optyl frames is an opportunity for buyers who appreciate the house's licensed eyewear heritage. Dior's sunglasses from the 1970s-80s period - marked by the Optyl material and the distinctive metal constructions of that era - represent the intersection of couture design authority and industrial eyewear production at its most creative. Three pairs from the same collection suggest consistent provenance and care.
