1. Acetate, an exceptional material Each pair of Persol glasses is born from a cellulose acetate sheet, carefully selected for its quality. Originally colorless, this powder is transformed by meticulous dyeing, offering an infinite palette of shades: translucent, opaque, or transparent. Thanks to the use of natural materials, Persol creates unique color variations, not only for each model but also for each individual frame, making each pair a work of art in its own right.
The acetate is then hand-sanded by the brand's artisans, who give it a soft surface. Their unique expertise, combining precision and sensitivity, allows them to apply the ideal pressure between the acetate and the abrasive belt, thus ensuring a perfectly smooth, elegant, and timeless finish.
2. The Meflecto system, revolutionary flexibility At the heart of every Persol frame lies a discreet but major innovation: the Meflecto system. A flexible metal armature and ingeniously designed hinges are integrated into the temples, offering unparalleled flexibility. This system allows the frame to adapt smoothly, not only at the hinge but also along the entire length of the temple.
Thus, each Persol pair combines robustness and comfort, adjusting gracefully to facial movements, for a consistently perfect fit.
