A top example of mid-century 1950s cat's eye sunglasses, these vintage French cat eye sunglasses are a real color explosion at the temples. The color swirls at the left and right corners are soft and iridescent, with hues of shimmering iridescent pink, blue, and gold reminiscent of Tiffany Favrile glass. In a striking design, the color swaths swirl toward the nose, progressively narrowing until only the inner gold band continues on around the entire perimeter of the cat eye shape of the left and right lens. These colors are well highlighted against the black base color of the frame and the dark, smoky lens color. These vintage French cat's eye sunglasses also have a subtly curved shape for easy wearing contoured to the face, and we particularly like how the corners turn back a bit more dramatically to accent the cat eye design. Each lens measures approximately 2.0" x 1.25" at the widest point, while the frame measures 5.75" temple to temple. One ear stem is marked Made in France, impressed in the frame. Super vintage style sure to attract questions and compliments! Try Them On! SOLD

Rare Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban pearlized Marcellina women's cat's eye sunglasses c 1950s - 1960s combine the lovely and shimmering pearl color with vintage green glass lens for a great, cat-like effect that is guaranteed to make you purr! The elongated frame shape really accents the cat eye lens, not completely mirroring the shape of the lens and thus adding some additional design interest. The pearl frames look like they might glow in the dark, and metal studs at the 2 front corners add a final design flourish. One of the ear stems is marked B+L Ray-Ban USA impressed in the frame, and the other is marked Marcellina impressed in the frame. The lens are really long and chic, measuring approximately 2.0" x 1.125" at the widest points. These vintage Ray-Ban cat eye sunglasses are in excellent vintage condition, ready for a new face to grace. $175.00

Vintage 1950s French cat's eye sunglasses are a blue base color coupled with Art Deco inspired starbursts at each front corner that features gold highlights and two studs on each side for a little added design flair. Blue is highly desirable yet strangely hard to find in vintage sunglasses, so we were all pleased to discover this 50s vintage French style as part of a major estate consignment exclusive to Collectics from Austin, Texas. These cat eye sunglasses are not as extreme in shape as some, and we think they look great with either formal or informal wear. These vintage women's sunglasses feature lens that measure 2.0" x 1.125" at the widest points, and they measure 5.75" temple to temple when the elongated Art Deco styled temples are included. They are marked on the interior of the ear stem Made in France. Our vintage cat's eye sunglasses from the 50's and 60's never last long on the site, and then we get tons of emails inquiring whether another pair is available after they're marked sold. These are priced to sell quickly so don't wait! Try Them On! $165.00

Super cool 1950s French Lalu rhinestone sunglasses are quite unique in that they have beige as the primary color of the exterior frame coupled with an interior lining color that is more off white to provide a very interesting color contrast. Aside from the high quality of French sunglasses produced in the middle of the 20th century, what really stands out in these sunglasses are the rhinestones and etching that decorates both temples and ear stems of the sunglasses. One of the rhinestones is particularly large and faceted, and they really catch and reflect the light on each corner. It's really a great look, and we really like the way the frame has a subtle wrap around the temples that adds a last little bit of design flair. The frame measures approximately 5.0" temple to temple while the lens measure approximately 1.875" x 1.125" at the widest points, and the inside of one ear stem is marked Lalu etched in script while the other ear stem is marked Frame France.

Indulge the feline in you with about the most streamlined and extreme example of French cat's eye sunglasses we've ever seen here! What more classic cat's eye combination could there be than jet black cat eye frame coupled with elongated green cat's eye lens, and this high quality French design is sure to please. The design is classic and certain to get a reaction from your friends and strangers, one of the ways our shameless female staff here at the Vintage Sunglasses Shop likes to get attention when they go out. Each of the lens measures approximately 1.75" x 1.0" at the widest points, and they're very elongated so the lens narrows quite dramatically. The frame measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple, and they are of European vintage and marked France on the ear stem. When these were unpacked from a major estate collection of vintage sunglasses, we kid you not that there were more than the usual number of MEOWS as they were circulated among our staff.

Vintage 1950s cat eye sunglasses from France feature a satin finish taupe with lovely carved detailing at the corners accented with aurora borealis rhinestones and gold metallic bead accents. There's a lot of other things to love about these vintage cat's eye sunglasses starting with the extreme cat shape of the frame and lens coupled with the contrast between the exterior taupe finish and the almost white finish of the interior. You can't get more authentically 50s retro than this style, and everyone here had a lot of fun trying them on and snapping photos. The intricacy of the temples really sets these off as well, and you don't see the combination of carving, rhinestones and beads that adorn these at each temple. The frame measures approximately 5.0" temple the temple, and the elongated cat's eye green lens measure approximately 1.875" x 1.0" at the widest points. The inside of one ear stem is marked Frame France BH, and while we are not familiar with the specifics of the BH origin it is a company's mark that we see frequently on the finest French sunglasses from this period. Fun and stylish! Try Them On! $155.00

Fun Italian white cat's eye sunglasses feature metal studs and orange rhinestones at the temples and a subtle yet striking pattern. The combination of the white cat's eye sunglasses with green lenses looks super cool, and the studs and rhinestones make them more than just your run of the mill inexpensive cat's eye sunglasses from this period. The Italian plastic frame measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple, and the cat eye lens measure approximately 1.875" x 1.25" at the widest points. Vintage white sunglasses are extremely popular and hard to find, and we don't think you'll be disappointed in this unique rhinestone studded look. The inside of the ear stem is marked Italy, and they're priced so sell fast! Try Them On! $85.00

You'll see some of the finest period 1950s and 1960s French cat's eye sunglasses come from BH France, and we think you'll particularly love these rather stunning BH etched and rhinestone studded sunglasses in rare white mother of pearl color. You'll note that there's a contrast between the pearl white exterior color and a light gold interior color on the ear stems, and we think that combination adds a good bit of extra design flair to these period women's sunglasses. The black etching is intricate and reminiscent of the Art Nouveau period, a flowing interpretation of branches and leaves that use rhinestones to provide sheen and contrast. That design starts on the front of the frame and extends around the hinges to move halfway down each ear stem. Green rectangular lenses are a nice complement to the white pearl exterior frame, and the design all goes together in such a way that you're sure to get noticed and asked questions when you wear these period midcentury French sunglasses. The inside of the ear stem is marked France BH impressed in the plastic of a frame that measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple with lenses measuring approximately 1.675" x 1.0" at the widest points. Try Them On! $175.00

Rare 1950s / early 1960s B&L Ray-Ban cat's eye "Beatnik" sunglasses have a style that will leave jaws dropping wherever you wear them. It's really an amazing design, with a 2 tone frame that combines black and pearl in an always striking color combination but with added flair delivered by the B&L green cat's eye lenses. These vintage cat's eye sunglasses are guaranteed to make you want o MEOW, and not only is the color combination and shape striking but you also get top of the line B&L Ray-Ban quality in frame materials and lens technology. The frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple when taking into account the flared corners, and the lenses measure approximately 1.75" x 1.25" at the widest points. The inside of both ear stems is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA impressed in the frame. The black and pearl color combination coupled with the green B&L cat's eye lenses are what make this vintage 1950s example of cat's eye sunglasses really stand out, part of a major consignment of 1950s and 1960s fashion exclusive to the Vintage Sunglasses Shop and the Collectics Group.
