COLANI 76-5002 BY MURAI, MADE IN JAPAN IN 1990S.
THESE BLACK FRAMES WITH A RUBBER COATING FOLD UP TO RETRACT AROUND WIRELESS GREEN LENSES.
“THE NATURAL WORLD IS MADE UP OF CURVED LINES.” LUIGI COLANI WAS THE MASTER OF ORGANIC DESIGN, HE WAS INSPIRED BY SHAPES AND FORMS HE'D FIND IN NATURE: "THE FUSION OF FUNCTION, RATIONALITY AND HUMAN NATURE" WHICH COLANI CALLED "BIO-TECHNIC DESIGN.”
THIS VERY RARE AND ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE PIECE COMES FROM THE SECOND ERA OF JAPANESE MADE COLANI EYEWEAR: AFTER A LONG COLLABORATION WITH THE MANUFACTURER OPTOS, COLANI MADE A VERY SHORT PRODUCTION RUN WITH THE ICONIC MURAI MANUFACTURE WHO DESIGNED AND PRODUCED ALL OF JEAN PAUL GAULTIER'S MASTERPIECES FROM THE 1980-1990 ERA.
