B&L Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban Wings Turquoise Blue Sunglasses
Vintage Bausch & Lomb Wings sunglasses feature a rare one piece polycarbonate turquoise blue lens and a subtle wrap design which quickly became one of the top choices of pilots around the world following their introduction. B&L Wings sunglasses were the last great innovation from B&L in eyewear before selling the Ray-Ban brand to Luxottica in 1998. Aside from the unique design and 1 piece lens, Wings sunglasses also used polycarbonate lenses - the same material used on airplane windshields - which allowed Wings to provide a large surface area of eye protection while remaining lightweight. This a rare example of Wings sunglasses that includes a gold brow bar to improve balance on the face and a turquoise blue B&L Wings one piece lens that was only manufactured in very small quantities. The gold unisex Wings frame measures approximately 5.675" temple to temple, and the left side of the lens is laser etched Wings Bausch & Lomb. The top of the nose bridge is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA; these are new old stock Bausch & Lomb Wings sunglasses in mint, unworn condition and come with the original Wings case, cleaning cloth, and paperwork.
