Description from the seller
Vintage Persol Havana Sunglasses — Italian Acetate, Iconic Arrow & Meflecto
Vintage Persol sunglasses featuring a beautiful classic Havana / tortoiseshell acetate frame and the unmistakable Persol signature metal details on the temples.
A superb example of the timeless Italian eyewear aesthetic for which Persol is renowned. The frame has a rich, warm tortoiseshell pattern with beautifully varied shades, giving each pair a unique appearance.
The temples feature the iconic Persol Arrow, one of the most recognizable symbols in Italian eyewear. The Arrow was inspired by the swords of ancient warriors and became one of Persol's defining design elements from the late 1930s onwards.
The characteristic Meflecto flexible temple system is another important Persol innovation. Patented at the end of the 1930s, Meflecto was designed to allow the temples to adapt more comfortably to the wearer's head.
Persol has its roots in Turin, Italy, where the company began in 1917, and the brand became famous for combining traditional Italian craftsmanship with innovative eyewear technology. Persol acetate frames are produced through numerous stages of skilled craftsmanship, contributing to their distinctive depth, finish and character.
Condition
Pre-owned vintage condition — excellent overall.
The sunglasses have been previously used but remain in very good to excellent condition. The beautiful Havana acetate frame is particularly attractive and retains its original character.
The lenses are free from scratches and present very well.
Please examine all photographs and the video carefully, as they form an important part of the description and show the exact condition of the item.
