From the seller

If you are looking at this ad then you may be aware of the quality and reputation of the ladies and gentlemen's outfitters Cartier of Paris and there products which was founded in 1847 by jeweller and designer Louis-Francois Cartier. However, for those of you who are new to this brand what we have here is a vintage pair of Cartier eyeglasses frames model name Edition Santos-Dumond. Moreover, while known for there build quality and presigious design innovation the frames are brushed chrome and gold with black arm socks and the iconic Santos gold coloured screws along the nose bridge and arm shafts. On the inside the arms are marked 130 Paris Frame CE and serial number on one arm along with Edition Santos-Dumond Cartier and 58-16 on the bridge while I would describe these as a medium-large size arm length.

In adition, while designed primarily for smart casual dress wear or equally perfect for everyday work or study wear and when worn offer a medium weight yet snug fitting well balanced feel while adding a sense of sophistication and elegance to the wearer though when closed neither of the arm butts come into contact with the lenses.

As for the cosmetic condition these frames have been used and are in very good condition with age and use related signs of handing patina and discolouration to the frames, nose pads and rubbing on the arm socks. In addition one of the hinge screws has been replaced and is protruding although this is only visual and as such I'd rate them as 8-8.5/10. Please Note: these eyeglasses are not fitted with any lenses which will need to be changed to suit your own requirements. In addition, most frames can be adjusted to fit by your optician although do check and confirm these options are available. No carry case or cleaning clloth although I'll include a case for free. Serial Number 3877840.
