FR 150 – Vintage European Amber Sunglasses w/New, Custom Gradient Rose Lenses

Deadstock FR 150 – Vintage European Amber Sunglasses with Custom Gradient Rose Lenses

Descriptions

An original vintage treasure—this Deadstock FR 150 frame showcases a rare blend of 1970s design and modern customization. Likely produced by a French or West German independent optical manufacturer, this piece was never sold or worn and has now been brought to life with brand new Berko’s Designs custom lenses.

• Deadstock frame – Never worn, fully refurbished
• Material: Lightweight amber-to-honey translucent acetate with embedded metal core
• Era: Late 1970s to early 1980s
• Style: Squared lenses with rounded edges and a softly elevated brow line
• Markings: Stamped “FR 150” on inner temple – likely linked to a small-run French production batch

These types of frames were commonly distributed through boutique opticals, often unbranded or white-labeled. The craftsmanship suggests a quality on par with early Metzler, Alfa, or Neostyle, but without direct markings, the precise maker remains unknown—adding to its mystique.
