Ferucci 1778

Ferucci 1778 Prescription Glasses

Rimless glasses have a way of disappearing on the face, and that is exactly the point. The Ferucci 1778 is a women’s rimless frame in gold or pink metal, with no rim around the lenses at all, so people see your eyes first and your glasses second. It is sized 52-19-135 and takes single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription.

Why go rimless?

Without a rim, the frame is light and open, and it never cuts across your field of view. The lenses are held by the bridge and the arms only, which gives the Ferucci 1778 a clean, almost weightless look that suits work, weekends and special occasions alike.

Look closely at the arms and you will see a small decorative detail near the hinge, a little touch of jewellery that keeps the frame from feeling plain.

Gold or pink?

Gold is warm and classic. It flatters warm and olive skin, pairs beautifully with gold jewellery, and looks polished without trying.

Pink is softer and a little more playful. On a rimless frame it shows up mostly on the arms, so it adds a gentle hint of colour rather than a statement. It is lovely with fair skin, silver or rose gold jewellery and pastel colours.

Size and fit

The 52mm lenses put this frame in the medium range, and the 19mm bridge is slightly wider than average, which suits a broader nose bridge. With a 33mm lens depth the lenses are on the slimmer side, so this frame is at its best with single vision lenses or a bifocal.

To check the fit, compare it with glasses you already own. The three size numbers are usually printed inside the arm.

Lens options for the Ferucci 1778

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• Progressive lenses for clear vision at every distance without swapping pairs.
• Single vision for one job done well: driving, reading or desk work.
• Bifocal if you like a clearly marked reading section.
• Ready readers when you only need help close up.

If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night. Rimless lenses have exposed edges, so a thinner, tougher lens is a smart choice if your prescription is strong.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optometrist and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optometrist for it. Pick your colour, choose your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are not sure about sizing, compare the measurements above with a pair you already own. It only takes a minute and saves any guesswork.

Made for you in our UK lab

Choose your colour and lenses, enter your prescription and PD, and our optical lab in the UK makes your lenses and fits them into your Ferucci 1778 before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Clean the lenses with lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before you put them down, and keep them in a hard case when they are not on your face. Our guide to caring for your lenses covers the rest.

FAQs

Are rimless glasses like the Ferucci 1778 fragile?

They are lighter than full-rim frames, but with sensible care they last well. Take them off with both hands and store them in a case.

Can I wear the Ferucci 1778 for driving?

Yes. Single vision lenses work well for driving, and an anti-reflective coating helps cut glare from headlights and wet roads at night.

Can I get progressive lenses?

Progressive lenses need extra height, and the 33mm lens depth is fairly shallow. Single vision or bifocal lenses are usually the better match for this frame.

Will it suit a wider nose bridge?

Yes. The 19mm bridge is a little wider than average.

Where are my lenses made?

In our UK optical lab. They are cut to your prescription, fitted into your frame and then sent to you in Australia.
