'71 MOD YVES SAINT LAURENT x RENAULD FRANCE SUNGLASSES RARE
Specimen on offer is an ultra rare MODEL YVES SAINT LAURENT x RENAULD FRANCE Acetate Aviator Semi Wrap Sunglasses frame c. 1971.
YVES SAINT LAURENT PARIS / RENAULD FRANCE collaboration
kindly note embossed stampings on both inner temples....right temple is embossed Yves Saint Laurent and left temple is stamped RENAULD FRANCE
rare, highly collectible investment grade specimen made in France. c. 1971
at this time...Lanvin, Cardin, Dior, Laroche ...were the forerunners to licensing their name for what we know today as 'Designer Sunglasses'
This rare specimen is long out of circulation for the most part..as it was made some 55 years ago...and to find another pair of this model in this condition would be difficult.
Very few of this model with the YVES SAINT LAURENT stamp were ever made. Interested parties should be made aware there are reproduction RENAULD sunglasses currently being made.....retailing for 2500$ USD on average on the RENAULD UK website. These reproduction models are newly made..and NOT in any way affiliated with the actual vintage YVES SAINT LAURENT X RENAULD FRANCE (c. 1971) rare specimen on offer. The reproduction models are NOT stamped YVES SAINT LAURENT..and are merely newly made copies.
If you see a RENAULD frame with white paint alone (ink) on the inner temples...and the letters were not actually hard stamped / embossed / into the Acetate...frame is a modern copy.
As mentioned...in 30 plus odd years of collecting old and sometimes rare sunglasses..I have only come across this very early YVES SAINT LAURENT stamped model once. Specimen on offer is Rare.
The vintage YSL specimen on offer is guaranteed to be an AUTHENTIC pair of c.1971 YVES SAINT LAURENT x RENAULD FRANCE. model sunglasses. The frames on offer are actual vintage..over 50 plus years old.
YSL pretty much got into the sunglasses game in the late 1970's / early 1980's...the specimen on offer is an ultra rare pair of very, very early YSL frames c. 1971 made in extremely low production run.
