These classic sunglasses are in really excellent condition and ready for prescription lenses or sunglasses. The bridge is marked ''RAY-BAN B&L 1/10 12K GF'' and the glasses are otherwise unmarked. The markings mean the frame is 12 karat gold-filled.

These are real vintage Ray-Ban frames, probably dating from after WWII and before the middle 1950s. The dating is based on two items: they're 12 karat gold filled - not plated like modern ones - and the nose pads are not the later clear pads or the very earliest bakelite ones. They're in pristine condition: great finish throughout, mint and matching brow bar and nose pads, nice tight hinges and even the screws are flawless - without marring. Great glasses, great condition, ready to wear. The hinges are nice and tight, the temples show no wear, even at the ears, and the nose pads are like new, with a nice mother of pearl finish. These frames are in really excellent condition.

How to measure for vintage frames.

Wire rims are flexible, so lenses can be made to a variety of shapes for this frame. The typical style for this frame is a near-round lens often called a ''P3'' shape. Remember that temples are always measured their full length, hinge to tip, as though they were straightened out. Why? Because they're adjustable, so measurements to the bend will vary based on who wore the frame. Also remember that temples can be changed, so if this length isn't quite right for you, let me know - I may have a matching pair! Lens and bridge measurements are from lens edge to lens edge. Hinge to hinge is measured from screw to screw.

I describe any flaws found while cleaning, but there are no problems to report with this pair. I'm particular about condition so there are no surprises and these glasses are in really excellent condition. They'll make great everyday glasses or some very cool sunglasses.
