Description from the seller
Here we present, with great charm, a strictly vintage-flavored accessory signed Porsche Design by Carrera: the highly sought-after sunglasses model 5626.
This model stands out for its bold design that reinterprets in a modern, luxurious and highly functional key the classic aviator teardrop silhouette. The sturdy gold-toned metal frame features an elegant front bridge, embellished by an original and ingenious folding mechanism. The attention to detail extends to the special metal hinges that allow both the temples and the center of the frame to fold in on themselves, making the glasses extremely compact and easy to store.
The wide lenses, characterized by a sophisticated brown gradient, guarantee optimal protection and add a touch of mystery to the gaze. On the upper part of the left lens the lettering "PORSCHE DESIGN pd" is discreetly engraved, while inside the right temple the identification serial number is regularly printed.
Regarding condition, the metal frame appears in generally good condition, with a solid and perfectly functioning folding mechanism. For maximum transparency to future buyers, and as clearly shown in the close-up photographs taken against the light, there are slight surface scratches and light signs of wear on the lenses, due to normal use over time. These marks confirm the object's history and authenticity without compromising its integrity or its great retro charm.
To further enhance the lot, the glasses come complete with their original black Carrera rigid case, specially shaped to protect the folded glasses securely. An iconic piece, perfect for eyewear collectors or anyone seeking an accessory of undeniable class.
