Vintage Laura Biagiotti Classic Glam Sunglasses with Faux Tortoiseshell Accent

After studying to become an archaeologist in Rome, Laura Biagiotti began working in her parents' dressmaking shop in 1972.

This spurred the young designer to open The House of Biagiotti, which has since become one of the world's largest high-fashion labels.

These spectacular shades feature large square-shaped lenses with shimmering gold-tone frames.

As you can see, the brow-area is accented with criss-crossing bars: one in a brilliant gold-color and the other decorated with sexy leopard spots.

Plastic nose-pads and ear-piece coverings make the sunglasses extremely comfortable to wear.

There are several marks on the interior of each arm. Marks on the left arm read "T 110/N/S/ 51L" while the marks on the inside of the right arm read "68 11 Laura Biagiotti, Made in Italy, 135".

Both arms have a lovely matte-black finish on the exterior with the Laura Biagiotti logo, "LB", imprinted near the temple.

The rivets on the nose pads feature the same logo.

The sunglasses come in their original vibrant red case, which shows "Laura Biagiotti" printed in big, black letters on the front.

The interior is lined with soft, black felt which will keep the sunglasses nicely preserved.

Though the case shows some tiny scuffs on the exterior, it remains in good vintage condition.

While the lenses and frames exhibits some wear and a few light flea-bite scratches, these sexy sunglasses remain in good vintage condition.
