Cartier Giverny Sicier 135b Painted Bubinga Wood Sunglasses
1 Vintage Cartier Giverny Sicier 135b painted Bubinga wood sunglasses c 1990s are one of the most highly sought after designs of any vintage Cartier and very hard to find today. The elegant, finely crafted gold and silver plated frame is distinctive enough, but the real stars of the show are the multicolor painted Bubinga wood ear stems intricately connected to the core gold plated frame. The color hues of this variation of the Cartier 135b makes them one of the rarest of the Giverny Sicier models, a particularly eye catching design when looking at them from the sides. Bubinga wood is a popular imported African hardwood loved as much for its quirky name as it is for its strength and beauty. Bubinga has a close resemblance to rosewood and has an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. The unisex Cartier Giverny Sicier 135b frame measures approximately 5.75" temple to temple, and the lenses measure approximately 2.125" x 1.675" at the widest points with both lenses laser etched with the Cartier Paris logo. You'll find the Cartier C in gold at the hinges of both ear stems, and the rear of the nose bridge is impressed © Cartier 55 [] 22 along with the unique Cartier serial number. The inside of one ear stem is marked © 135b Cartier, the inside of the other stem is impressed Made in France 135b and the inside of the gold hinge on that side is impressed Cartier Paris, and both ear pads are embossed in gold Cartier. Very rare.
