Description from the seller
Persol Ratti for Pininfarina
80s sunglasses
Full SET with Original Guarantee
Exceptional piece for eyewear collectors and automotive memorabilism.
Rare vintage sunglasses, born from the historic collaboration between Persol (original Ratti management) and the famous Pininfarina styling center, dating back to the eighties.
Main features and authenticity details:
Original Persol Ratti lenses
Mineral glass lenses, in excellent condition, with no significant scratches, featuring the iconic circular engraving "PERSOL" and the central "R" clearly visible
Frame and design:
Aerodynamic-design model with the "Pininfarina" logo embossed on the outer temple.
Full Set:
Included in the sale is the original period accessories set, composed of:
Original Persol/Pininfarina branded guarantee card (an extremely rare accessory to find).
Semi-rigid brown leather case, with metal Pininfarina plaque and Persol Ratti-Made in Italy internal logo
Condition:
Lenses: more than excellent
Frame: Structurally solid. As shown in the close-up photos, there is a slight natural misalignment (gap) between the edge of the lens and the frame of the mount. This is a typical phenomenon for glasses made of plastic from that era, due to the physiological loss of hydration of the material over decades, which a vintage-optics specialist can potentially adjust.
Case:
The structure and plaques are intact, the external leather shows evident patina and light surface flaking due to time.
A piece of great charm and historical value, perfect to complete a high-level collection.
