These charming frames currently have prescription lenses (one chipped) which would have to be changed. We recommend only using opticians with experience in fitting vintage frames for the installation of new lenses. 1930's USA. Frames: Excellent condition. Very unusual. 5.25" Wide, Arm 5.5", Height 1.25". Lenses measure 1.75" x 1.5".
