When two excellences of Made in Italy meet, the result is something extraordinary. Persol, an icon of artisanal eyewear since 1917, and Cassina, a global benchmark in designer furniture, together sign a limited and numbered edition sunglass frame: 500 pieces worldwide.

Inspired by the sculptural elegance of Vico Magistretti's 905 chair, the PO3401S frame is crafted from an exclusive striped blue acetate rooted in Persol tradition. Every detail — from the bridge precisely worked with architectural precision to the temples that recall the Cassina language — is designed for those who seek not merely eyewear, but a collector's item.

The design

The bridge is enhanced by refined milled details that lend subtle depth. The temples follow a clean line with a distinctive curved tip. The Persol and Cassina signatures are engraved on the inside of the temple — a discreet detail, for connoisseurs.

The lenses

Blue optical crystal lenses, the same material Persol has always used to guarantee maximum visual clarity and protection. No compromise: the best available.

The box

Each pair is delivered in exclusive packaging inspired by Cassina's archive folders, accompanied by an Italian leather valet tray signed by Patricia Urquiola, Cassina's Art Director, inspired by the wax seal. An object within an object.

The valet tray

The valet tray signed by Patricia Urquiola, Art Director and Designer of Cassina, elegantly interprets the union of the two brands. Made of Italian leather, it expresses a precise and conscious vision of craftsmanship.

Persol icons

The Arrow, the unmistakable symbol conceived by founder Giuseppe Ratti, and the Meflecto system — patented in the 1930s and still unsurpassed today — are also present in this special edition, to reaffirm that heritage is not paused even for an extraordinary project.

Limited availability. Only 500 numbered pieces produced worldwide.
