Late 1990s - Gaultier (56-0040).

This is a monumental model from the later period of Gaultier eyewear, showcasing an explosion of futuristic style.

The frame is made of metal with an aluminum-like finish!

The temples are navy x clear acetate.

The lenses are Gaultier's signature dark navy (commonly known as Gaultier Navy).

Moreover, they feature flat lenses, further enhancing the futuristic feel.

Gaultier eyewear at that time was produced by Murai Co., Ltd. in Fukui Prefecture.

The quality of Murai-produced eyewear back then, when they were licensed to produce eyewear for many famous brands, was extremely high. Despite the complex designs, they were crafted without any compromises.

The design of 90s Gaultier eyewear was unparalleled, head and shoulders above the rest, which explains why it has so many enthusiastic fans worldwide.
