Bugatti unveils $15,000 sunglasses

The famous French luxury car manufacturer made a most surprising announcement yesterday. In association with designer Larry Sands, Bugatti has developed a collection of glasses, with prices ranging from $1,295 to $15,000.

The choice is between style and utility.

 

To justify its prices, the Alsatian company claims that rare materials such as palladium, sterling silver, gold, carbon fiber and Macassar ebony are used to design these luxury accessories, which will be manufactured in Japan.
