HOT ! Claudia Carlotti MOD 20 CS 79-VINTAGE 70s France-Oversized Sunglasses

Claudia Carlotti MOD 20 CS 79 Deadstock 70s France Sunglasses

Hand Made in France

Deadstock – Unworn – All Original

This is authentic late-1970s French fashion eyewear at its peak.

A sculpted oversized silhouette with bold architectural lines, layered gold trim around the lenses, and signature temple inlays — this is not subtle eyewear. This is statement eyewear.

Marked inside temple:

• MOD. 20 CS 79


• Hand Made in France

The detailing tells the story:

• Deep teal marbled acetate

• Gold inlay lens framing

• Swarovski-style crystal accent panel at hinge

• Gold CC monogram hardware

• Original gradient lenses with Carlotti marking

• Heavy luxury French acetate construction

This is the era when French houses were competing on drama, glamour, and build quality — and it shows. 

Era & Design Relevance 

The exaggerated square shape, crystal insets, and layered metal accents place this firmly in the late 70s / early 80s glamour era — when eyewear was jewelry.

Think:

• Studio 54.


• French Riviera.


• Runway excess.


• High-society leisure.

This is fashion-forward, collectible, and increasingly rare in true unworn condition. 

Condition
