From bold modern frames to literal 1930s gold-filled history. 👓✨
I just added a rare, complete piece of mid-century optical history to the shop! These authentic 1930s American Optical rimless spectacles feature 12K gold-filled metalwork, intricate Art Deco bridge engraving, flexible cable wire temples, and faceted octagonal lenses.
What makes this pair so special is the complete local provenance: they arrived preserved inside their original optometrist hard case with the matching printed polishing cloth from Dr. A. Scott Gibson of Thomaston, Georgia.
Whether you’re a vintage optical collector, dark academia fan, or looking for a showstopping desk accent, this set is officially live.
