About this item

A vintage pair of Persol Ratti sunglasses with the famous Meflecto flexible temples. The glossy black acetate front has a bold, squared shape with a straight bridge and is fitted with solid green lenses. Each temple carries three thin silver bands near the hinge, a signature detail of vintage Persol Ratti frames, and the outer temple is stamped "meflecto" next to the Persol script logo. The inner temple is stamped "PATENT".

Brand heritage

Persol was founded in Turin, Italy, in 1917 by Giuseppe Ratti, and its name comes from "per il sole" (for the sun). The brand is known for its patented Meflecto system, flexible temple stems that adapt to the shape of the head for a more comfortable fit. Vintage Persol Ratti Meflecto frames are collected worldwide.
