other info

• Ted Lapidus did a brief apprenticeship with
  
  Christian Dior in the 1950's before opening
  
  his own boutique in Paris. His house is still
  
  going, having been taken over by his son,
  
  Olivier, but before he retired he made this
  
  style of sunglasses, with its tubular bamboo-
  
  like design with gold metal accents, his own.
  
  This pair is one of his most unusual shapes
  
  and a rare colour, not seen by us before.
