VS3342: Vintage Jean Paul Gaultier 56-6107 sunglasses feature arguably the most eye catching frame and lens combo you'll find here at the Vintage Sunglasses Shop, a very rare c 1992 design with an elaborately crafted frame of twisting metal flourishes and highly reflective and even rarer JPG purple mirrored lenses which pick up addiitonal hues of red and gold out in the sunlight. Taking design clues from 1950s French cat eye sunglasses, Gaultier updates the look for the modern era. Tell Me More

VS3450: Vintage designer sunglasses cases from Ray-Ban, Revo, Nicole Miller, Carrera Porsche Design, Vuarnet, Maui Jim, Oakley, Jimmy Choo, Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Coach, Gucci, Serengeti, Fendi, Harley Davidson, Orvis, Gloria Vanderbilt, Persol, Versace, YSL, and more. Tell Me More

VS3529: Vintage American Optical AO 72 steampunk goggles are so early and in such amazing condition that we are very tempted to conclude that they are in fact unworn new old stock stored somewhere long ago for many, many years as they are as mint as anything this old will ever be without being fakes. And these are no fakes, that's for sure. The only flaws you see are some minor cracking in the leather, a bit of oxidation in places that can be removed if you so choose but we wouldn't.

VS3541: Vintage Cartier Giverny Sicier 135b Natural Horn 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 natural white buffalo horn ear stems intricately linked to the gold frame and making the Cartier Sicier as distinctive from the sides as they are from the front. Tell Me More

VS3542: Vintage Cartier Cartayat C Decor 140b Bubinga Wood sunglasses c 1990s are one of the earliest rimless designs Cartier produced, an elegant and finely crafted frame made extra special by the use of rare Bubinga wood for the ear stems intricately connected to the core gold plated frame. 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. Tell Me More

VS3543: 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. Tell Me More

VS3544: Vintage Cartier Giverny Sicier 135b Natural Horn 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 natural white and black buffalo horn ear stems intricately linked to the gold frame and making the Cartier Sicier as distinctive from the sides as they are from the front. Tell Me More

VS3551: Vintage Jean Paul Gaultier 56-0174 sunglasses c 1991 are one of the most recognizable of all extraordinary JPG designs, an icon of rap and hip hop music and worn by Tupac Shakur (2Pac), Ethan Hawke, 2Chainz, A$AP Rocky, Samuel L. Jackson and other celebrities over the years. The extremely rare 56-0174 is probably the most iconic frame ever produced by Jean Paul Gaultier, and the front features a unique bolt-and-screw double bridge mounted on two triangles. The craftsmanship on the temples is truly state-of-the-art, and the length can be modified with a one of a kind triple bar construction. Tell Me More

VS3596: Vintage American Optical AN6531 Outdoorsman aviator sunglasses are the iconic original AO military version aviator sunglasses c early 1930s/ 1940s, issued to Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps aviators as pilot sunglasses in the years leading up to and during World War II. They feature early American Optical brown mineral glass lenses, much harder to find than the more common green lenses used in both B&L and AO AN6531s, and Outdoorsman cable "shooter" ear stems for the most secure fit possible. Tell Me More

VS3619: American Optical steampunk goggles started life as safety goggles but today are worn mostly as motorcycle and open air goggles with one of the most striking and eye catching looks you'll ever see in vintage fashion. The stars of the show here are the perforated side blinkers that rotate inward to permit the glasses to fold up; interestingly enough, the ear stems fold the opposite way from most sunglasses to enable a thin profile when folded even when the side blinkers are on.
