Safilo for Oxydo 90s vintage oval sunglasses made in Italy. Green matt finish solid metal frame with black arms and green lenses. Unused NOS

We like to think that you have reached the point of looking for vintage most likely after a process that made you realise what has been apparent to us for a long time { even if we hadn't been in this industry for 35 years }; that the concept of 'get the look for less' is NOT a virtue, but an abomination. We are not snobs and supply a lot of very cool things for only somewhat more than the cost of international postage in some cases. But some things should be valued for what they are, something unique from another time and place and atmosphere that cannot be reproduced in a Chinese factory by people who still think that communism might one day have a happy ending ( for their oppressed workers; they know it won't. )

These glasses manage to embody those simple truths in a way that shouldn't need to be spelled out. But I will anyway. They are made in Italy by Safilo, the company behind the manufacture of a large segment of the worlds most illustrious eyewear brands. They also made their own brands here and there and in the 90s, Oxydo was one of them for the continental European market. It is certainly not well known but is made to the same standard as any that are. So how we promote this pair is as the same quality as the big league brands but we sell them for about half of what those brands charge ( we also sell those brands so we know this comparison ) and the consumer gets a very high degree of exclusivity for minimal outlay.

We have made an AI-generated model image to complement our standard product photography for customers who find mannequin images less helpful when judging how a frame may look in use. It is intended as an artistic visualisation rather than a literal depiction, which creates a context, feeling and atmosphere that we consider useful, imaginative and possibly inspiring for genuine vintage lovers. The eyewear itself is the genuine item being offered for sale and the image is helpful for indicating a good sense of the dimensions. All subsequent pictures are an accurate representation of the product. Moreover, you must use our measurements to verify the size is correct for you.
