Persol Frames at French Optical

Persol, an Italian eyewear brand, has a rich history dating back to its inception in 1917. It was founded by Giuseppe Ratti in Turin, Italy, initially specializing in crafting advanced glasses tailored for sports drivers and pilots. The company’s commitment to delivering top-notch eyewear with a blend of functionality and style has been unwavering throughout its century-long journey. Persol also offers a wide range of eyeglasses options for prescription lenses and coatings, catering to both prescription and non-prescription needs.


One of Persol’s standout features is its dedication to quality craftsmanship. Each pair of Persol frames undergoes a meticulous production process comprising over thirty steps. These steps integrate premium materials, cutting-edge technology, and a keen eye for detail, resulting in eyewear that embodies excellence.



Central to Persol’s identity is its patented Meflecto technology, introduced in the late 1930s. This innovative flexible stem system ensures maximum comfort by adapting to the wearer’s facial contours, alleviating pressure and enhancing the overall fit. It’s a hallmark feature that sets Persol apart in terms of comfort and wearability.



Another distinguishing characteristic of Persol glasses is the use of Barberini® mineral lenses. Renowned for their durability and optical clarity, these lenses are crafted with precision, offering wearers a pristine visual experience. Persol’s commitment to utilizing top-grade materials underscores its dedication to providing eyewear of the highest quality. Persol offers a wide range of options suitable for each face shape, ensuring style, comfort, and functionality.



The iconic Silver Arrow emblem, inspired by ancient warriors’ swords, adorns every Persol frame, serving as a symbol of the brand’s heritage and craftsmanship. It’s a subtle yet distinctive detail that signifies authenticity and excellence. Persol sunglasses are known for their various lens options and have a rich history associated with pilots, motorists, and actors, emphasizing the quality and innovation of their frames.



Among Persol’s illustrious lineup of eyewear, the Persol 649 stands out as a timeless classic. Originally designed in 1957 for tram drivers in Turin, it quickly gained popularity and became an icon of style. Its enduring appeal is a testament to Persol’s ability to create designs that transcend time and trends. Customers are guaranteed to find the perfect pair, combining stylish frames and premium quality lenses.



In 1995, Persol was acquired by Luxottica, a leading eyewear conglomerate. Despite the acquisition, Persol has remained true to its roots, continuing to produce eyewear at its historic factory in Lauriano, near Turin. This commitment to tradition, coupled with a focus on innovation, has solidified Persol’s position as one of the world’s most esteemed eyewear brands.



Today, Persol continues to captivate discerning individuals with its blend of Italian elegance, superior craftsmanship, and timeless design. Whether worn by famous sportsmen, actors, or everyday enthusiasts, Persol glasses embody a legacy of excellence that transcends generations. With a heritage spanning over a century, Persol remains synonymous with sophistication, quality, and enduring style.



All Persol frames can be converted into prescription glasses or sunglasses, as fast as 1-5 business days, depending on prescription and lens enhancements, guaranteeing that you not only make a personalized fashion statement but also cater to your vision needs with precision and style.
