A Perfect Shade of Persol: 2012-2013 Sunglasses Collection by Persol
An exclusive brand for the selective customer, Persol has been known for its highest quality eyeglasses, hand-made in Italy no less, for close to a century. Persol frames are recognizable for their graceful design, architecture that never fails to be ahead of the season, and longevity in both construction and style.
Their current collection is a fine balance between the vintage and the contemporary, mixing the classic glamour of tortoise-shell and the universality of black with innovative frames that remain accessible. As demonstrated by the brand’s passionate endurance for so many years, timelessness is a quality not to be easily dismissed.
While extravagant experimentation is not the reason you would look at Persol,the do offer some unique choices in distinctive modern frames.Without overstepping the boundaries of subtlety, their sunglasses offer you the chance to acquire a frame that is uniquely Persol, without the blatant branding of other big-name designers.
Key-hole nose bridges are intelligently paired with off-beat hues of champagne and silk. Athletic lines are emphasized with high class by the use of glassy, transparent frames. Popular frame shapes are given a coy wink with stylish hints of pattern and colour in combination with solid black. Arms designs are always elegant, and chic choices of tint gild the plastic and glass lenses.
You will not find your frames adorned with kitsch of glittery logos and ornaments, compensating for a lack of refined aesthetics. Persol frames are in fact quite simple, yet set a high standard for the au-current of eyewear fashion.
