About this item

Inner temple marked "6602" and with the Persol script logo; the left lens carries the etched Persol logo. Large 58 mm brown gradient lenses.

Brand heritage

Persol was founded in Turin, Italy, in 1917 by Giuseppe Ratti, first making protective goggles for pilots and racing drivers; the name comes from "per il sole" (for the sun). Its Meflecto system of flexible temples, which bend to the shape of the head without pressure, became one of the brand's signatures. Frames from before Luxottica bought the company in 1995 are known as "Persol Ratti" and are collected for their hand-finished Italian acetate.
