Vintage square sunglasses by Safilo - from the bottom of a drawer

It's been a while since I've seen vintage shades as good as these. They're by Italian eyewear giant Safilo and Elisa found them in the bottom of a drawer in a shop in her parents' village in Italy.

I think they're 1960s or 70s. I love the bridge and the detail where the temples join the frame.

With big thanks to eli__sa for letting me publish this terrific photograph. Feel free to comment if you have more detail!
