About this item

A 1960s Persol Ratti 6200 in very dark brown acetate that looks almost black. The thick rectangular front has small silver rivets at the corners, and the wide temples carry the Persol silver arrow and the grooved Meflecto flex system. Amber-brown glass lenses give the warm, high-contrast view these Persols are known for.

Brand heritage

Persol was founded in Turin, Italy, in 1917 by optician Giuseppe Ratti; the name comes from "per il sole" ("for the sun"). Persol introduced the patented Meflecto flexible temple in the late 1930s, and its silver arrow, inspired by ancient swords, is one of the best-known marks in eyewear. Vintage Persol Ratti frames made in Italy are widely collected.
