For Lunor, the telescopic glasses are what the 911 is for Porsche.
Although Lunor has always based its own eyewear production on eyewear shapes from past centuries, Lunor has managed to give its own glasses that certain something. This gives the creation of the Lunor telescopic eyewear a unique touch and made the German eyewear manufacturer world-famous.
Although these glasses are very simple and relatively small, glasses enthusiasts will immediately recognize that they are luxury glasses from Lunor. The frames are also extremely robust and can be stowed away in the smallest of bags thanks to the telescopic slide temples.
When Lunor presented the glasses with the telescopic temples in 1992, the demand was immediately so great that the company produced its telescopic glasses in the most diverse shapes. So there are octagonal Lunor telescopic glasses, oval glasses with sliding temples, round frames or even panto glasses with telescopic temples.
These temples became Lunor’s trademark and are still in great demand today.
Lunor produced its most famous glasses not only in different shapes, but also in different materials and levels of refinement.
The most expensive Lunor telescopic glasses are the real gold glasses with sliding temples. This version consists of 16 ct fine gold and 2 ct platinum and was handcrafted in 1992 in an edition of only 100 pieces. Finding such a treasure today has become almost impossible.
Much more affordable are the Lunor metal glasses with sliding temples, which are "only" gold-plated. These frames are gold-plated with 22 ct gold and are also of outstanding quality, just like the platinum-plated Lunor telescopic glasses. Since the beginning of the 2000s, the sliding glasses have also been available as titanium glasses.
No matter whether gold, platinum, titanium, round or square: Lunor telescopic eyewear has one thing in common - it is very small and therefore also suitable for high visual acuity. The temples are also relatively long, so that the small glasses look surprisingly good on larger faces and, above all, fit well.
The formula for success of these unique glasses can therefore be explained by several characteristics: The idea of the telescopic temples and their unique implementation using different shapes and materials - and of course that "certain something".
