Why We Love Them | Era & Relevance

The broad brow, generous rounded square lenses and oval bridge opening give this Tart Optical frame its distinctive character. Translucent smoke-brown colouring reveals the metal temple cores, while the new gradient lenses complete the warm tonal pairing.

The design recalls classic American aviator eyewear. The exact model, production decade and country of manufacture remain unconfirmed.
