Valentino V614 vintage 80s shield sunglasses
Valentino was founded by Valentino Garavani in 1960 in Rome, Italy. The fashion house quickly became renowned for its luxurious and elegant designs, earning a prestigious reputation in the world of haute couture.
Valentino began offering eyewear in the early 1980s as part of its expansion into accessories, bringing the brand's signature elegance and luxury to sunglasses and optical frames. The eyewear collections have been produced by various high-end eyewear manufacturers over the years, with a strong emphasis on quality and craftsmanship.
This shield-type frame features a striking striped gold upper part and temples, complemented by a brown lens. A distinctive round pattern decorates the meeting point of the temples and lens, adding a special touch to the design. The temples also feature subtle logos, balancing the frame's overall outstanding appeal. Despite its bold appearance, the frame is designed for both comfort and practicality. Crafted in Italy in the 1980s, this frame is a true standout piece of vintage eyewear.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Our glasses come with detailed measurements in the product description.
The key measurement is the frame width, which is the distance from the inside of the right temple to the inside of the left temple. To ensure a perfect fit width-wise, we recommend measuring an existing frame that fits you comfortably, providing a valuable reference. For minor size concerns like nosepads and temple lengths, an optician can make adjustments.
