    ROME, June 5 (Reuters) - Italian eyewear manufacturer iVision Tech IVN.MI said on Friday its brand Henry Jullien sold online more than 1,000 units of the sunglasses worn by French President Emmanuel Macron in January during the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos.

    Shares in the company jumped around 65% between January 21 and January 23 after Macron's look went viral, with share price readjusting in the following weeks.
The Pacific S 01 model sells for €659 ($766.35).
​Its production is split between plants in Lons-le-Saunier, France, and Martignacco, Italy.
The coordination between the historic French headquarters and the Italian production hub made it possible to meet the sudden growth in demand, iVision Tech CEO Stefano Fulchir said in a statement.
