Swank were an American company specialising
in importing and commissioning eyewear from
Europe (but later transferring their operations
to the Far East). We have a catalogue of theirs
dated
1968 and although this pair doesn't appear,
it is from around this period. In the catalogue
their frames are described as, "...Smart fashions
for the smart set...the choice of discriminating
....exquisite fashions, interpreted by the world's
leading stylists....the elegant, the charming, the
unusual - that's Swank!" This pair was made in
France and is a spectacular example of their
craft. On the face of the frame the deep clear
layer sits on top of the petal effect multi-coloured
layer while on the arms it's the other way round.
Flower Power!
