0 PARIS ♥ Lunettes

 If you can tear your eyes away from street level vitrines and look up...
 You'll note an amazing variety of lunette signs
 Quite abstract they are too...
 And graphically sophisticated
 Unless you're fond of Floridian jazzy numbers...
 A transparent sign with iconic eyeglass symbols
 A nice combination of lunette symbol and typography
On-the-wall sign alerts you they are open Mondays too
 L'art de Voir - what a competition of both signs and shop names
 Les enfants de Paris get their own lunette shops if this is a child...it could be a shrunken adult or a child posing as an adult..qui sait?
 Woody Allen's glasses iconically announce a play
 Even chocolate Easter eggs at Fauchon get lunetted
 The proprietor of this Marais shop yelled at me for taking a picture of her sign
And her quite unique lunette though it was well past closing time. She raced inside to shut off the lights.
Trop tard!
Are there as many lunette shops in Paris as patisseries?
