Collection: Salvatore Ferragamo

The Ferragamo universe is expressed through discreet luxury, based on the quality of materials, precise lines, and a constant search for formal balance. The sunglasses follow this philosophy: revisited classic shapes, well-constructed frames, elegant but not excessive finishes. The design emphasizes meticulous details: gold inserts, a discreet logo, and fluid lines. The temples can feature the Gancini, the house's stylized emblem, or a soberly engraved signature. Ferragamo cultivates an aesthetic of restraint, faithful to its artisanal roots and its high-end positioning.

Salvatore Ferragamo founded the eponymous house in Florence in 1927, after achieving success in the United States as a shoemaker to Hollywood stars. After his death in 1960, the company remained family-owned and expanded into ready-to-wear, leather goods, and accessories. Ferragamo eyewear appeared in the 1980s, under license from major Italian manufacturers such as Luxottica and Marchon, depending on the period and market. The brand established a strong presence in Asia and North America, maintaining an elegant and timeless image, associated with Italian artisanal tradition.

- The SF 125 (90s), soft rectangular shape with golden Gancini logo.

- The SF 623S, with flared branches, typical of the early 2000s.

- Series manufactured in Japan for the Asian market, often numbered with the mention “Made in Japan”.

The Gancini, Ferragamo's iconic symbol, comes from the wrought iron hook found on the ancient doors of Palazzo Spini Feroni, the house's historic headquarters in Florence. This motif, which has become a signature, was gradually integrated into all product lines, including sunglasses, since the 1990s. It allows collectors to quickly identify certain vintage series.

Vintage Ferragamo sunglasses are appealing for their Italian or Japanese manufacturing quality, their understated and well-balanced design, and their consistency with the brand's historical DNA. Less widely available than other mass-licensed brands, they remain relatively rare on the second-hand market. Their visual discretion makes them sought-after frames by lovers of elegant and timeless accessories, who value a refined but not ostentatious aesthetic.
