Description:

Design & Heritage:

Dunhill eyewear was developed for the discerning luxury client—a reflection of the brand’s Savile Row tailoring roots and commitment to subtle sophistication. The 6081 model features a rectangular lens profile and sculpted lines that reflect the late 1980s to early 1990s era of continental design—where bold acetate frames were refined with precision German craftsmanship. Made from Optyl, the 6081 offers lightweight durability, adjustable temples, and color vibrancy not achievable with standard acetate.

Frames from this era are increasingly hard to find in true deadstock condition, especially those that can be repurposed for everyday wear. This pair is a standout both in form and rarity.
