A distinctive 1980s design by Tura, this vintage frame captures the era’s fascination with oversized proportions and sculptural geometry. The softly squared lens shape is balanced by a pronounced curved bridge and contrasting dark detailing across the brow, creating a bold yet refined silhouette. Ribbed accents at the temples add a subtle architectural detail, while the delicate metal construction keeps the overall profile elegant and lightweight. Frame Model: 222 (W) Decade: 1980s Country of Origin: Japan Lenses: Original soft pink gradient lenses Condition: Deadstock Measurements: 51-18-134 Historical Context Founded in New York in 1938 by Monroe B. Levoy, Tura became an early pioneer in treating eyewear as a fashion accessory rather than simply an optical necessity. The company introduced innovations such as the Coloratura collection in 1949, combining frames with fashion colours, and later became the first eyewear company to establish a designer licensing partnership with Christian Dior in 1966. Tura’s design language developed around jewellery-inspired detailing, expressive colour, sculptural forms, and ornate finishes, with collections incorporating gold filigree, rhinestones, pearls, and other decorative elements.
