THE LEADING EDGE OF MODERN CHINESE CHIC

Launched in Hong Kong in 1994, ‘Shanghai Tang’ is a luxury lifestyle brand that brings together traditional Chinese culture with the dynamism of the 21st Century to create a vibrant fusion of East Meets West.

Already, Shanghai Tang offers a collection of apparel, an expanding range of home furnishing, accessories and gift items. And now in October 2006, for the first time-eyewear, all of which exudes a vibrant charm and modern sophistication.
Whilst ever evolving, Shanghai Tang’s uniquely distinctive style sees the use of eye-catching Chinese motifs and vibrant colours integrated into each design.

Presenting a stunning range of sunglass and optical frames, the collection includes models for both men and women.

Each model is carefully created to reflect Shanghai Tang’s ‘unique DNA.
The Chinese symbols used express longevity, well being, blessings, happiness, peace, harmony, wealth and prosperity. They have been woven into the very fabric of the frames to produce a subtle, yet striking impression.
Some models have real silk delicately interlaid between the acetate layers to create a delightful impression.
Some models also bear reference to the history of China, one of the world’s most iconic images, the last Chinese Emperor, P’u Yi- in his quirky spectacles serves well to portray the quintessential fusion that lies at the heart of Shanghai Tang.

All of the models within the eyewear collection are created from the finest materials and are lovingly hand finished.

To complete the overall impression of Chinese luxury, the eyewear is presented in a stylish fan-shaped case with a beautiful silk lining, Chinese coin, jade like bead and silk tassel. It is supplied with Shanghai Tang crest logo in micro fibre lens cloth.
