These Safilo vintage sunglasses have a large lens, and a comfortable, moulded plastic nose bridge. Each lens measures 2 1/2″ x 2″. They are marked inside the arm, Safilo Made in Italy UFO 501. They come with the original case, which is marked UFO on the outside, and Safilo under the flap. They are in good condition, estimated to be from the eighties.
” Safilo UFO sunglasses are iconic vintage frames from the late 1970s and 1980s. Produced in Italy by Safilo, they are celebrated for a patented “UFO technology” lens mounting system. Instead of a traditional full rim, this system used a fine metal wire that ran directly around the lenses, giving them a distinct floating or semi-rimless effect.”
