Alain Mikli Isabeau A03108 003 Cat Eye Optical Frame
Condition
Deadstock / Unworn, with demo lenses still fitted.
Frame Details
A sculpted cat-eye front in blue-teal acetate, streaked with a fine cream striation that gives the surface an almost woodgrain depth. At each outer corner, a geometric inset of crystal and tortoise breaks the line, a signature Mikli play on color and construction. The front leads into warm havana tortoise temples. Handmade in Italy, the frame is feminine, graphic, and unmistakably Alain Mikli.

Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance
Modern. Alain Mikli opened his Paris design studio in 1978 and built a reputation for eyewear defined by daring color and shape. The Isabeau brings that spirit to a sculpted cat-eye, layering striated blue-teal acetate with crystal and tortoise insets for a frame that rewards a closer look. A striking Mikli piece, kept unworn.
