These Rodenstock sunglasses feature a classic aviator silhouette with a slim dark metal frame, double bridge and softly rounded lenses. The original burnt-yellow, light brown lenses add warmth to the understated design, reflecting the precise German styling and functional elegance of 1970s eyewear. Frame Model: Rhodos S11 Decade: 1970s Country of Origin: Germany Lenses: Original burnt yellow/light glass lenses Condition: Pre-owned Measurements: 135 Historical Context Founded in Würzburg in 1877 by Josef Rodenstock, the German company began by producing optical lenses, frames, and precision measuring instruments. By 1880, Rodenstock had patented its Diaphragma lenses and was already developing innovations in spectacle construction, establishing an early reputation for technical precision. The brand’s design philosophy reflects German engineering, combining functional construction, precise workmanship, and technical innovation with increasingly refined frame designs. Rodenstock’s documented history therefore places its production of eyewear at the very beginning of the company’s history, with frames and lenses forming part of its original product range.
