Designed in 1957 for tram drivers in Turin, Italy, Persol's 649 is arguably the company's most well-recognized silhouette. The frames are handcrafted from ethically sourced buffalo horn, requiring six weeks to make. Each one is as unique as the wearer, thanks to the horn's natural color variations and stripes. They're outfitted with Persol's signature Meflecto stems, ensuring comfort, the iconic arrow, which is laser-etched into the frame, and fitted with polyamide lenses for the utmost optical clarity.
