CAZAL legend

Everyone is familiar with Cazal and all its amazing frames but not nearly as many are privy to the increasingly rare deluxe models. Back in the 80s at the height of their popularity Cazal would make certain colors a regional releases.. The more calm and basic colors for the European market and the louder colors for the US market because of our love of flashy huge frames. Some genius at Cazal decided to capitalize on this and made deluxe models. Taking certain pairs (607,616,623,634,858,856,951etc..) and having then fitted with real leather and Swarovski. Taking already gorgeous frames and giving them the illest make over. The 858 picutred got the best of both worlds. Adding black leather textured to look like crocodile skin and 6 Swarovski crystals for an over the top flair. Not many were made and even fewer survived over the years. So count yourself lucky if you ever manage to snag a pair.
