The Batglass and the Catglass
Number of editions: 4
Maison Bonnet is renowned for creating some of the most beautiful high-end eyewear in the world, having made pieces for Yves Saint Laurent, Jackie Onassis, and Le Corbusier among others. Thinking about what the United States symbolized for them, superheroes sort of came to mind naturally.
The shades are handmade, and each designed in two versions: one in black buffalo horn and the other in black acetate, engraved with one single yellow acetate
leaf. The lenses were specifically produced for each pair by a Swiss laboratory.
