Italian Avant-Garde Round Gold Sunglasses-Vintage Deadstock w/ Second Chance Customs Gradient Lenses

Vintage Avant-Garde Italian Round Gold Sunglasses — Deadstock — Custom Lenses

Bold. Sculptural. Archival.

Unworn deadstock late-1970s to early-1980s Italian studio production, featuring an asymmetric round silhouette with elevated outer wing points — a rare couture-era design language seen in Milan ateliers and early European avant-garde eyewear.

Finished in polished gold metal with pearl temple tips and newly fit with custom gradient lenses by Second Chance Customs, this frame delivers dramatic fashion architecture paired with modern optical performance.

This is true collector-grade archival eyewear.
