The Fielmann Comfort 091 CL reflects the understated, functional character of 1990s German eyewear design. Its slim rectangular silhouette features clean horizontal lines, gently softened corners, and a subtly defined bridge, creating a precise, minimalist profile. The fine dark-toned frame has a restrained appearance, with warm tortoiseshell-like accents adding subtle contrast along the front. Frame Model: Comfort 091 CL (F199) Decade: 1990s Country of Origin: Germany Lenses: Empty, ready for custom Condition: Excellent vintage Measurements: 55-15-140 Historical Context Founded in Cuxhaven, Germany, in 1972 by Günther Fielmann, the company transformed the optical retail industry by making fashionable eyewear more affordable and giving customers greater choice. In 1981, it challenged Germany’s limited health-insurance frame system by offering hundreds of fashionable metal and plastic frames at no additional cost to eligible customers. Fielmann’s approach helped establish glasses as accessible fashion accessories, combining practical function with contemporary styling and a broad selection of shapes. Its collections range from classic rectangular and oval frames to modern geometric designs, reflecting a focus on everyday wearability and value. The company’s eyewear history began in 1972, when its first optical store opened, although the production dates of specific frame styles vary by collection.
