Frame Details

The 902 Bouffi is an original Oliver Peoples design from the brand's early Japan-made era, built on a round, full-rim silhouette with a keyhole bridge and pin detailing at the temples. This example is finished in a striped brown acetate that fades to a translucent light gold toward the base of the frame, giving the piece a warmer, more layered look than a solid tortoise colourway. The vintage "Oliver Peoples L.A." wordmark is engraved on the temple.

Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance

A genuine vintage piece from Oliver Peoples' early Japan-made period, the 902 Bouffi carries the brand's original "Oliver Peoples L.A." wordmark rather than the branding used on today's Italy-made reissues. The 32LG fade acetate gives this particular example a two-tone depth not seen on the brand's more common solid tortoise colourways, making it a somewhat rarer find within the 902 line.
