hi have inherited relative (travelling optician salesman) bag of vintage sunglasses. have IDed most, but cannot find any information on the web about Occhiali Zagato sunglasses and they are very groovy looking! they have a few different logos: Zagato written in different scripts and/or a logo of an old car. I can find some for sale on international ebay but there is absolutely no information about the company, what era they might be etc (I am thinking 1970s/1980s). Does anyone know about these, or perhaps put us in the right direction to vintage sunglasses specialists? Thank you!!
