TED LAPIDUS Metal Vintage Sunglasses for sale | eBay。EXTREMELY RARE Vintage Ted Lapidus Opalescent Gold TL 15 14 Sunglasses! Vintage Ted Lapidus TL 15-series sunglasses, particularly from the 1970s and 1980s, are iconic, oversized French-made designer eyewear. Known for featuring bold designs, often with gold-plated accents, oversized, and often featuring thick plastic frames, gradient lenses, and gold-tone detailing. Similar models include TL 1508 or 1502, but this model, with its milky opalescent finish, is almost impossible to find and makes this a highly desirable addition to any collection. These glasses have been kept in pristine condition. They belonged to my grandmother and were kept in a leather pouch in her jewelry box for the past several decades.
