AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Cartier Vintage Rimless Glasses – Wood Collection (Carved Wood Inlays) – 1990s
Brand: Cartier
Collection: C Décor Precious Wood Collection (Vintage 1990s / Early 2000s)
Type: Rimless Frame (Glasant / Rimless)
Finish: Gold-plated metal with a glossy finish and the iconic C Décor motif on the hinges.
Temple Material: Precious natural wood worked with a special oblique relief pattern (carved/textured wood) and clearly visible grain.
Engravings and Identifiers:
On the bridge: Unique Cartier serial micro-engraved number 405227.
Right temple (inside): "Made in France CE 135 b".
Left temple (inside): "Cartier".
(The inscription "135 b" indicates temple length measurement of 135 mm and Cartier’s original hallmark).
Nose pads: Logo with the double "C" engraved inside the golden nose pads.
Temple tips: Gold-plated metal plate with Cartier logo.
General condition and signs of wear
The frame is in good overall vintage condition, but as an antique item it shows normal light signs of wear due to age and use:
- Superficial micro-scratching or natural patina on the metal and gold-plated parts.
- Light signs of age or small imperfections on the wood of the temples and on the nose pads (as shown in the detailed photos).
- The wood still retains an excellent overall structure, with no cracks or visible breaks, and the hinges remain in good working order.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON LENSES
The eyewear is currently fitted with tinted prescription lenses. The lot is offered and sold exclusively as a collectible frame, ready to be customized by the new owner with personalized lenses at their trusted optician.
ACCESSORIES AND SHIPPING
The glasses are sold alone, without original case and without purchase certificates. They will be shipped with careful packaging inside a generic protective case to ensure the wood’s integrity during transport.
Shipping: Fast, tracked and insured.
