Legendary
vintage Ray-Ban Caravan sunglasses are great in any style, but if
you want the very best you will enjoy these vintage Ray-Ban Caravan
10k gold filled sunglasses. Done early in Ray-Ban's production,
the 10k gold filled frame means that it will last and look great
for years and years, and in fact these sunglasses pre-date the use
of the Ray-Ban logo in script on the lenses which only began c 1970s.
Ray-Ban Caravans have a unique lens shape that looks great on a
variety of faces, male and female, and the combination of the green
Ray-Ban lenses with the 10k GF frame really can't be improved upon.
The frame measures approximately 5.375" temple to temple with
lenses which measure approximately 2.125" x 1.875" at
the widest points. The top of the double nose bridge is marked B&L
Ray-Ban USA while the bottom of the nose bridge is marked B&L
1/30 10k GF USA, all impressed in the metal. These early B&L
lenses pre-date the use of the Ray-Ban logo in script on the lens,
but each lens has the etched BL on the top middle of the lens -
a very early B&L practice that even pre-dated the etching of
a BL near the hinge points. This beautiful old pair of Ray-Ban Caravan
10k gf sunglasses comes to you direct from a San Diego, CA estate
collection of fine vintage jewelry and eyewear.

While
Ray-Ban Wayfarers come in a variety of color combinations, we think
these vintage Ray-Ban Wayfarer II sunglasses that combine black
with a blue patterned top accent is right up at the top of the list
of most eye catching styles. They have all the classic flourishes
of vintage Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses without the quality erosion
that you see in modern production now that Ray-Ban is no longer
owned by Bausch & Lomb but rather by the Luxottica conglomerate.
The frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple and
is suitable to be worn as men's or women's sunglasses, and the lenses
measure approximately 2.0" x 1.75" at the widest points.
These are early Wayfarers with each lens having the etched BL near
the hinge points, and you will find the Ray-Ban logo in raised metal
on the exterior of each ear stem which is also done in the blue
pattern for some real design flair. The inside of one ear stem is
marked B&L Ray-Ban USA, and the inside of the other stem is
marked Wayfarer II.

If
you're a fan of vintage Ray-Ban Leathers sunglasses but want a style
that's a little bit different from legendary Ray-Ban aviators, check
out these vintage Ray-Ban black Leathers sunglasses with rare round
lenses in B&L gold plated frame. It's a really great look as
men's or women's sunglasses, and round Leathers are quite hard to
find and sell almost immediately upon hitting the site whenever
we have them in stock. These vintage Ray-Ban have an added plus
of B&L photochromatic lenses which change their color with varying
light conditions, especially desirable for anyone who goes in and
out of buildings frequently and doesn't like to keep removing his/her
sunglasses. The frame measures approximately 5.0" temple to
temple with lenses measuring approximately 1.875" x 1.75"
at the widest points. Each Bausch & Lomb photochromatic lens
has the etched BL in the glass lenses near the hinges, and the rear
of the metal nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA 49 [] 21.

A
beautiful example of vintage Ray-Ban Leathers sunglasses can be
yours with these rare vintage 58mm Leather aviator sunglasses inclusive
of the leather wrapped General bar and B&L light brown photochromatic
lenses. The B&L photochromatic lenses are each etched BL in
the glass near the hinges along with the Ray-Ban logo in script
on the right lens, and they'll change color to adapt to a variety
of light conditions through some pretty amazing Bausch & Lomb
optical lens technology. Don't be fooled by the rampant Ray-Ban
fakes on the market today nor in modern Ray-Bans which are no longer
produced by B&L but rather the Italian company Luxottica. The
supple brown leather wrap looks great on the gold plated Ray-Ban
aviator frame, and both lenses, ear pads, and the General nose bridge
are all fully wrapped. These vintage Ray-Ban Leathers sunglasses
are very hard to find, especially with the General bar and photochromatic
lenses, and you'll love how the lenses perform and protect your
eyes with superb visual acuity in all light conditions. The bottom
of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban 58 [] 14 impressed
in the metal, and both of the nose pads are also original and marked
BL.

For
a different look in B&L Ray-Ban legendary aviator sunglasses,
we think you'll really like these vintage Ray-Ban black frame aviator
sunglasses with traditional ear stems and mirrored and moderately
reflective brown Ray-Ban B-15 lenses. The combination of black and
brown in the classic aviator sunglasses shape is a winner, and these
also have a black General bar on top that adds a lot of extra design
flair. The black metal Ray-Ban frame measures approximately 5.5"
temple to temple, and the teardrop shaped aviator lenses measure
approximately 2.25" x 2.0" at the widest points. While
not mirrored per se, the B&L brown lenses are moderately reflective
and provide sharp visual acuity in all light conditions. The top
of the double nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA, while the
bottom of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban 62 [] 14. They
also retain the original marked BL celluloid nose pads to complete
the all original look, part of a Charlotte, NC estate collection
of finer vintage designer sunglasses.

These
upscale classic Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses are one of our most requested
styles, with cable wire ear outdoorsman ear stems, "General"
bar above the double aviator nose bridge, and early 58mm green G-15
lenses that pre-date the use of etching and the Ray-Ban logo in
script c 1960s - early 1970s. This particular style of 58mm aviator
- The General - has been the choice of pilots the world over for
over 60 years, and these were early B&L production c 1960s -
1970s. The gold plated Arista frame ensures that these vintage B&L
Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses will still be in good condition after
another 50 years, and you can't beat the original B&L optical
lens technology for glare reduction and UV ray protection from the
sunlight. The cable wire ear stems are flexible and adjustable for
a comfortable yet secure fit, and as you'll see from the photos
these vintage aviators are not only high performance but they also
look great at the same time. The top bar of the nose bridge is marked
B&L Ray-Ban USA while underneath the frame is marked B&L
58 [] 14 USA, all impressed in the metal. The frame measures approximately
5.25" temple to temple, and the polarized green - gray G-15
B&L teardrop shaped lenses measure approximately 2.25"
x 2.0" at the widest points.

Very
rare and super cool, you may never see another pair of vintage Ray-Ban
W1265 in your lifetime, and even here at the Vintage Sunglasses
Shop we only see about 1 pair every 3 years. It's an incredible
look reminiscent of vintage Ray-Ban Clubmaster sunglasses but with
lots more style and panache. Ray-Ban W1265 sunglasses are a design
explosion, with light tortoise shell frame tops and ear stems, a
gleaming gold plated nose bridge, and B&L green G-15 lenses
that are both etched BL in the glass near the hinge points. This
is a style and quality that is sure to get you noticed - or send
them back to us for a full refund. They're great as men's or women's
sunglasses with a frame that measures approximately 5.5" temple
the temple and elongated oval B&L lenses measuring approximately
2.0" x 1.375" at the widest points. The inside of one
ear stem is marked with the style number W1265 while the other ear
stem is marked with Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban USA. As a side note,
the Bausch & Lomb was only spelled out in full on very early
production runs, so we think these Ray-Ban W1265 sunglasses date
to c 1960s. The back of the 24k gold plated nose bridge is also
marked B&L Ray-Ban USA impressed in the metal, and even the
2 celluloid nose pads are all original and marked BL. Rare. Try

B&L Ray-Ban 62mm aviator sunglasses have everything that collectors
and vintage fashion afficianados look for - gold plated Arista frame,
"The General" top nose bridge bar, cable wire outdoorsman
ear stems for comfort and a secure fit, and green G-15 B&L Ray-Ban
lenses which have etched BL at each hinge point and the Ray-Ban
logo in script on the right lens. This style is the classic and
legendary choice of pilots and aviators worldwide, particularly
popular in the military and seen on many famous historical figures
including General Douglas MacArthur. It's also the style frequently
chosen by Michael Jackson, and the moderately oversized look of
the 62mm teardrop lenses have also made them a choice of many female
celebrities such as Demi Moore and Madonna. The gold plated B&L
Ray-Ban frame measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple,
and the 62mm B&L lenses measure approximately 2.5" x 2.0"
at the widest points. The top of the nose bridge is marked B&L
Ray-Ban USA, while the bottom of the nose bridge is marked B&L
Ray-Ban 62 [] 14 all impressed in the metal.

1950s / early 1960s B&L Ray-Ban cat's eye "Beatnik"
sunglasses have a style that will leave jaws dropping wherever you
wear them. It's really an amazing design, with a 2 tone frame that
combines black and pearl in an always striking color combination
but with added flair delivered by the B&L green cat's eye lenses.
These vintage cat's eye sunglasses are guaranteed to make you want
o MEOW, and not only is the color combination and shape striking
but you also get top of the line B&L Ray-Ban quality in frame
materials and lens technology. The frame measures approximately
5.5" temple to temple when taking into account the flared corners,
and the lenses measure approximately 1.75" x 1.25" at
the widest points. The inside of both ear stems is marked B&L
Ray-Ban USA impressed in the frame. The black and pearl color combination
coupled with the green B&L cat's eye lenses are what make this
vintage 1950s example of cat's eye sunglasses really stand out,
part of a major consignment of 1950s and 1960s fashion exclusive

Rare
vintage Bausch & Lomb Wings mirrored glacier glasses have the
unique Wings one piece optical lens and leather side flaps with
restraining strap that made these the choice of many top skiers
and mountaineers since they were first introduced in the 1980s.
When you're skiing, especially on warmer sunnier days, you might
not want to wear ski goggles but you still want to protect your
eyes from glare and wind. If that's the case, nothing does a better
job than B&L Ray-Ban glacier glasses. These vintage Wings arctic
sunglasses measure approximately 5.5" temple to temple and
feature a brown tint in a moderately reflective mirrored lens that
is also gradient, i.e. trending somewhat lighter in the lower portion
of the lens. They have flexible outdoorsman ear stems that wrap
around the ears for a secure fit, and the leather flaps on each
side fold inward for easy storage in the original B&L Wings
black leather storage case which is included. The Wings logo is
in gold at each hinge point on the ear stems, and one ear stem is
marked Bausch & Lomb along with the B&L logo while the inside
of the other stem is marked Frame France - Nylon. It's a fine example
of the best in B&L cold weather ski sunglasses, and everyone
here is partial to the one piece Wings lens design.

These
legendary Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses are one of our most requested
styles, with cable wire ear outdoorsman ear stems, "General"
bar above the double aviator nose bridge, and 58mm brown Polar Ray
lenses. This particular style has been the choice of pilots the
world over for over 60 years, and these were early B&L production
c 1970s. The gold plated Arista frame ensures that these vintage
B&L Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses will still be in good condition
after another 50 years, and you can't beat the original B&L
optical lens technology used in their Polar Ray lenses for glare
reduction and UV ray protection from the sunlight. Bausch &
Lomb Polar Ray lenses were optically ground and polished 6 base
glass, and we are including an original Polar Ray "test tag"
which came with the sunglasses and has a small round insert to show
buyers the effect of the Polar Ray technology. The cable wire ear
stems are flexible and adjustable for a comfortable yet secure fit,
and as you'll see from the photos these vintage aviators are not
only high performance but they also look great at the same time.
The top bar of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA while
underneath the frame is marked B&L 58 [] 14 USA, all impressed
in the metal. The frame measures approximately 5.25" temple
to temple, and the B&L brown Polar Ray teardrop shaped lenses

Vintage
Ray-Ban 58mm driving sunglasses are quite unique, combining moderately
reflective mirrored B&L brown B-15 lenses great for all light
conditions with the top "General" bar and regular ear
stems for easy removal. These B&L lenses provide the perfect
combination of UV protection and mirrored finish to reduce glare
from road conditions and sunlight while driving. The gold plated
B&L Ray-Ban frame is built to last, not like modern versions
of Ray-Ban sunglasses now made by the Luxottica Group among their
many other brands. While the same shape as Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses
that more typically have the cable wire outdoorsman ear stems, drivers
like the easy on/off that's more associated with regular ear stems
on sunglasses. The frame and moderately reflective brown 58mm lenses
are the right size for both men's and women's sunglasses, with frame
measuring approximately 5.25" temple to temple and lenses measuring
approximately 2.25" x 1.875" at the widest points. The
Ray-Ban logo is in script on the right lens, and both left and right
lens are marked BL etched in the glass near the hinges. The top
of the double nose bar is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA, and the bottom
of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban 58 [] 14. Includes
original leather case marked Ray-Ban for Driving Bausch & Lomb.

It
was difficult to wrench these vintage Ray-Ban 62mm Caravan sunglasses
out of the hands of our staff, for they are quite unique and rare
in that they have a red tortoise shell General bar and red tortoise
ear pads that are almost impossible to find in vintage Ray-Ban Caravans.
You just don't see tortoise accents very often on classic Ray-Ban
Caravan or aviator sunglasses, but we think they should have produced
many more because the look is just superb. The use of the tortoise
for both the General top bar and the ear pads ties the design together
nicely. Everyone loves the interesting shape of the Caravan lenses,
and these brown B-15 lenses are perfectly complementary to the use
of gold and tortoise in the frame and measure approximately 2.5"
x 2.0" at the widest points for a moderately oversized look.
The frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple, and
the top of the double nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA
while the bottom of the bar is marked B&L Ray-Ban 62 [] 14 -
all impressed in the metal. Rare.

From
the deadstock cache of a Wisconsin optician's estate, check out
these gold plated vintage Ray-Ban 58mm aviator / driving sunglasses
with top General bar and regular ear stems for easy on and off convenience.
The gold frame measuring approximately 5.25" temple to temple
really complements the B&L G-15 green lenses which measure approximately
2.25" x 1.875", dating to the period before the Ray-Ban
logo was used in script on the lens but after the point they began
to use a small etched BL near each hinge point c late 1960s / early
1970s. It's a classic style that incorporates the best in visual
acuity through Bausch & Lomb optical lens technology, and so
different from modern reproductions of this style that it really
isn't of much use elaborating on the quality differences. The top
of the double nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA while the
bottom of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban 58 [] 14.

Very
fine Ray-Ban Leathers sunglasses feature the hard to find leather
wrapped General top nose bar and gold plated B&L frame in the
classic 62mm size. They feature B&L green G-15 58mm teardrop
shaped lenses made to fully protect your eyes while looking great,
and each lens is marked with the etched BL near the hinge points
plus the Ray-Ban logo in script on the right lens. We have a hard
time finding vintage Ray-Ban Leathers in good condition, and trust
us that modern versions made by Luxottica are far from the same
as these vintage models made by Bausch & Lomb. Ray-Ban Leathers
with leather wrapped General bar are even harder to find but always
in the highest demand. The B&L optical quality lenses measure
approximately 2.5" x 2.5" at the widest points, and the
frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple. The top
of the nose bridge is marked B&L Ray-Ban USA, and the bottom

Beautiful
and seldom seen vintage Ray-Ban W2980 OYAS are c 1980s and have
a design look perhaps more associated with Revo but with vintage
Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban green lenses and high quality optics.
The tortoise shell ear stems really stand out on these sunglasses,
a rich hue that picks up hints a more reddish shade than the more
common orange, and they look great with the black nose bridge, hinges,
and rectangular green B&L Ray-Ban lenses. These are very popular
as unisex sunglasses with frame measuring approximately 5.5"
temple to temple and lenses 2.0" x 1.5" at the widest
points. In fact, the last pair of Ray-Ban W2980 sunglasses we had
in 2009 sold to a couple that was actually planning to share them.
The couple that shares sunglasses together stays together? Anyway,
they have a streamlined Ray-Ban logo in script embossed on one of
the two ear stems near the hinge, and both lenses are etched BL
near the hinge points plus the Ray-Ban logo in script on the right
lens. The inside of one ear stem is marked B&L Ray-Ban, both
original celluloid nose pads are marked BL, and one ear pad is marked
W2980 OYAS impressed in the tortoise. Rare.

Direct
from a midwestern optician's estate, vintage Ray-Ban Onyx WO793
tortoise shell driving sunglasses are not only rare but they capture
one of the most striking retro looks imaginable with their uniquely
angular and oversized frame. This pair was specially produced by
Bausch & Lomb for fine optical retailers to display and market
to their customers, marked on the interior ear stem Not For Sale
but now you have your chance to buy them regardless many years later.
There are plenty of special things about vintage B&L Ray-Ban
Onyx driving sunglasses, but our favorites are the extra wide ear
stems near the hinges and the combination rounded and angular shape
of the front frame. The frame measures approximately 5.75"
temple to temple making them perfect as men's sunglasses or oversized
women's sunglasses, and each Bausch & Lomb lens measures approximately
2.25" x 1.5" at the widest points. The tortoise shell
is rich and gleaming, and the Ray-Ban logo is embossed on the outside
of the left stem near the hinge. The inside of one ear stem is marked
B&L Ray-Ban USA Frame France while the inside of the other stem
is marked Not For Sale Onyx WO 793. Early and rare example of vintage
Ray-Ban Onyx sunglasses - not a modern Luxottica Ray-Ban reproduction.

Just
in and seldom lasting more than a week on the site, early and vintage
Ray-Ban Arctic CATS glacier sunglasses feature B&L reflective
lenses, leather side flaps, and a great Ray-Ban CATS French nylon
frame that shades from dark to light for a unique 2 tone effect
not usually seen in Ray-Ban sunglasses. These Ray-Ban Glacier CATS
have flexible outdoorsman / shooter ear stems for a secure fit in
active sports, and they also retain the original nylon strap attached
to the leather blinkers. Ray-Ban Arctic CATS were really intended
for skiing and alpine mountain climbing, but trust us that they
look super cool and offer amazing glare protection regardless of
your outdoor pursuit of choice. The leather side flaps protect the
sides of your eyes from glare, rain, wind, and snow, and the nylon
frame is designed not to stick to your skin even in the coldest
of conditions. The exterior of one ear stem is marked Ray-Ban near
the hinge while the other stem is marked CATS. The lenses measure
approximately 2.25" x 1.875" at the widest points, and
both lenses are laser etched with BL (Bausch & Lomb) near the
hinge points. The inside of one ear stem is marked Bausch &
Lomb Frame France while the inside of the other stem is marked Nylon
France. The frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple,
worn by men and women. Despite being 20+ years old, there are few
modern equals to the optical quality and performance of Ray-Ban
Arctic CATS glacier glasses which explains their enduring popularity.

Very
early Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses c 1940s feature rare 52mm lenses,
a smaller size than the typical mininum 58mm lenses and only made
very early in Baush & Lomb production. They predate the use
of the Ray-Ban logo in script as well as a laser etched BL on the
lenses which is one of the means we use to date vintage Ray-Bans.
These classic B&L Ray-Ban aviators feature a 12k gold filled
B&L frame that measures approximately 5.0" temple to temple,
perfect along with the 52mm lenses for most women and men with a
smaller head and face size. In inches, the Ray-Ban teardrop lenses
measure approximately 2.0" x 1.75" at the widest points.
These vintage Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses have regular ear stems,
original bakelite nose pads, and the gold plated frame is marked
on the top of the nose bridge Ray-Ban and on the bottom B&L
1/10 12k GF all impressed in the metal. The lenses, size, bakelite
nose pads, and top nose bridge marking techniques are all indicative
of very early B&L Ray-Ban production. Includes the earliest
B&L Ray-Ban "Anti-Glare Sunglasses" case we've ever
seen here, in scuffed but perfectly intact condition. Rare.

Early
Bausch & Lomb shooter sunglasses preceed the adoption of the
Ray-Ban brand and have all the bells and whistles when collectors
and sunglass afficianados look for early B&L aviators from early
to mid 20th century. They have bakelite nose pads, an early "General"
bar, very early B&L green anti-glare lenses, and outdoorsman
cable wire ear stems for a secure fit. This is an early B&L
silver aviator frame which really stands out from the later year
standardization on gold plating, and it is marked Bausch & Lomb
impressed in the metal below the nose bridge with nary a mention
of the Ray-Ban brand adopted a few years later. These early B&L
aviator shooters measure approximately 5.375" temple to temple
with B&L Tru Green lenses that measure approximately 2.25"
x 1.875" at the widest points of the rounded teardrop. It's
hard to mistake these c 1930s / 1940s Bausch & Lomb aviators
for the gold plated, more teardrop shaped aviators to come, and
those in the know will recognize the style of the very earliest
specialized aviator pilot sunglasses ever produced. You will never
see bakelite nose pads on subsquent aviators, and the early silver
frame and lens shape is unmistakeable. Rare - part of an Austin,
Texas collector estate.
