These Ray-Ban vintage eyeglasses feature a refined rectangular silhouette with softly angled corners and a gently curved brow line. The slim, full-rim frame is finished in a rich translucent burgundy tone, offering a distinctive alternative to classic black eyewear. Subtle shaping at the outer corners and a clean, understated bridge give the design a balanced profile that reflects the practical, streamlined aesthetic of 1990s optical frames. Frame Model: Unknown Decade: 1990s Country of Origin: Italy Lenses: Empty, ready for custom Condition: Excellent vintage Measurements: 52-17-145 Historical Context Ray-Ban originated in the United States in the 1930s, when Bausch & Lomb developed protective eyewear for American military pilots to reduce glare at high altitudes. The brand’s iconic Aviator sunglasses became available to the public in 1937, marking the beginning of its commercial eyewear history. In 1952, Ray-Ban introduced the Wayfarer, expanding its identity beyond aviation into everyday fashion and popular culture. Its designs combine functional innovation with distinctive silhouettes, from metal aviators to bold acetate frames and the structured Clubmaster. After Luxottica acquired Ray-Ban in 1999, production was consolidated in Italy, establishing a stronger connection with Italian manufacturing while preserving the brand’s American heritage.
