Brand: Ralph Lauren Polo x Optique du Monde
Style/Model: 24
Material: Acetate
Colorway: 076 Blonde
Place of Origin: Handmade, Italy
Stated/approx. frame size: 60/16/145
An early style from Ralph Lauren's very first eyewear collection. The hard to locate 24 in the even harder to locate blonde colorway.
Unworn deadstock/NOS in timewarp fresh vintage condition. For kicks, the original Optique du Monde plastic pouch and card with optician's writing will be included.
Colors pop on this perfectly pristine frame. The branded demo lenses have sustained scuffing and scratching from storage - but you'll be replacing them anyway.
Original hardware is intact: no verdegris/oxidation, barrel hinges supertight. Polo logo bubble inset on the inside of the right temple is intact.
FYI the temple stamping with size, etc is all there, but almost invisible to the naked eye. You'll need a loup or magnifier to see.
Note these frames are at least 40 years old and it is typical to require slight adjustments on any frame to fit any individual closer to perfect, handled by your eyecare professional.
Measurements in inches. See diagram in the last listing photo. Please compare measurements against a pair of your favorite spex.
