Vintage Cartier Paris Round Aviator Sunglasses Gold-Plated Frame Blue Mirrored Lenses 55-18 Vendome Santos Era

A striking pair of vintage Cartier Paris round aviator sunglasses featuring a lustrous gold-plated metal frame and vivid blue mirrored lenses, marked 55-18 on the bridge bar. Bearing the iconic 'Cartier Paris' engraving with CE certification stamp on the nose bridge, these are consistent with the prestigious Vendome Santos line produced during Cartier's celebrated 1980s–1990s eyewear era. The bold blue mirror lenses paired with the warm gold hardware create a commanding aesthetic that remains highly sought after by luxury collectors and vintage eyewear enthusiasts alike. A rare and wearable piece of French luxury heritage.

The gold-plated frame shows light wear consistent with age and vintage use, with minor patina visible on the bridge and temples. The blue mirrored lenses appear intact with no visible cracks or deep scratches noted from available images. Overall condition presents as good to very good for a vintage Cartier frame of this era; no case or original papers included.
