"Bossa Nova" 1960s Handmade Sunglasses

A sculptural, hand-carved take on the classic round frame. These 1960s sunglasses feature a compact, circular silhouette crafted from richly textured acetate, with a subtle woodgrain effect that adds depth and character. The proportions are intentional, designed for smaller faces while still making a strong visual statement.

Handmade during a decade defined by experimentation and individuality, this frame sits at the intersection of art and function, evoking the intellectual, avant-garde eyewear of the era.
