Complete your look with period spectacles. Our stock consists of new unused spectacle frames unless otherwise indicated. . Because spectacle frame materials alter characteristics over time no guarantee is given by Sleek 'n Chic as to whether a frame can be fitted with lenses. Our notes on suitability for new lenses (glazing) are for guidance only and no frames may be returned for credit.

Collector's Must Have!: “Tina” – a fantastic 1950's ‘cats eye’ upswept design in cherry/gray blend. These new shallow-eye frames are a real period find for a collector and they should take prescription lenses too. Ironically they will look the height of fashion today as well with their shallow depth. They feature shiny gilt finish aluminium sides and a gold decorative trim on the temple. [they were probably made by M Bender in Australia, but there are no labels or markings to confirm this]

Measures (on datum): Eyesize:44 Bridge:18 (boxed measurement), 30mm deep
