BRAND NEW Vintage VERSACE (Authentic) Mod. 418/F 852 Women's Sunglasses with crystal adornment ***SUPER RARE*** *** VERY COLLECTABLE***
This is a fixed price listing with 'Best Offer' option for (1) pair of brand new authentic (vintage) Versace Sunglasses, model 418/F 852. The circa is between 1980s and 1990s. We have been in possession of a small number of these for about 17-years, since we bought them from the Italian factory where all the Versace eye-wear was made. There are only two of these in stock and we think they may be the only two new ones in existence. Once they are gone, they are gone forever. The color of the lenses is black and the frames match in a shiny black. The rims are adorned with black crystals, presumably Austrian. Please note:This was no simple job to set the crystals. This was done with jeweler's precision. They did not have robots back when these were made and to do this quality job today (without robot assistance) would take hours and some percentage of them would be ruined in the process. These were definitely made for movie stars.
These frames are intended to be adjusted (if needed) by dipping the earpiece in very hot water, to make it soft enough to bend and fit. If you need such adjusting, suggest you take it to an optician because we regrettably can not be responsible if this procedure goes wrong. Marked on the inside (right) earpiece: "Gianni Versace Made in Italy". The left inside earpiece has the model number and "CE" marking. The familiar Versace "Medusa" emblem is raised in black at the temple. 100% UV, which is evidenced by the "CE" marking (EU standard). No case is provided.
