PRODUCT DETAILS | STYLE & OCCASION An iconic Italian silhouette ready for a new lease on life. These Gucci GG0061S "Urban" round frames feature the legendary red-and-green Web stripe on the temples—a signature of the Alessandro Michele era. While the lenses require replacement, the frames themselves are structurally sound and visually striking. Perfect for the sustainable luxury shopper looking to customize a designer frame with their own prescription or preferred lens tint.

CONDITION STATEMENT: Fair (Lenses Damaged / Frames Excellent). Detailed Condition Report: Please Read Carefully: The lenses on this pair are heavily damaged with fine scratches and surface wear that impede vision; they are not recommended for use as-is. However, the acetate and metal frames are in Excellent condition, maintaining perfect alignment and tight hinges. The full luxury kit—blue velvet case, silk drawstring pouch, and cloth—is included and in pristine condition.

ABOUT THE ITEM | ABOUT THE BRAND Made in Italy, Gucci's GG0061S is a masterclass in maximalist eyewear. This specific model utilizes high-grade acetate and integrated metal Web-stripe temples. Under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele, Gucci packaging moved to these jewel-toned velvet cases, which have become collectible in their own right. By replacing the lenses, you are essentially "upcycling" a piece of high-fashion history.

CLASSIFICATION & ARCHIVAL HISTORY: The GG0061S series redefined the "Round Frame" for the 2010s luxury market. It represents a pivot toward Gucci's heritage branding, utilizing the 1950s-era "Web" stripe in a modern, oversized context. Finding these specific red frames with a perfectly preserved velvet case is a win for collectors, as the cases alone often command a premium on the secondary market. This is an archival opportunity to own an authentic Italian-made frame at a fraction of the cost of new retail.

THE INVESTMENT CASE:

• Artisanal Craftsmanship: Italian acetate frames that outlast standard "fashion" eyewear.

• Market Scarcity: Red frame variants with the full boutique velvet set are rare, even in the secondary market.

• Design Integrity: The round frame with Web-striping is a "Forever Piece" in the Gucci catalog.

• Value Retention: By purchasing at a "damaged lens" discount, you are securing the frames at a base-level entry price that will not depreciate further once restored.

ARCHIVAL VALUE TRACKER:

• Est. Original Retail: $415.00 (2018, Boutique Tier)

• Modern Retail Equivalent: $560.00 (Gucci Web Stripe Round Collection)

• Logic/Key Driver: The "Restoration Gap." A buyer can purchase these frames and add premium aftermarket lenses (approx. $35) for a total investment of ~$200, which is nearly $360 below current retail.
