Ferucci 1791

Ferucci 1791 Prescription Glasses

A semi-rimless frame with a little bit of sparkle. The Ferucci 1791 is a women’s metal frame with a fine top rim, an open lower edge and decorative arms, in lilac or bronze. It is sized 50-16-130 and can be made up with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses to your prescription.

Lilac or bronze?

Lilac pairs a silvery front with soft purple accents on the arms. It is light and pretty, and it suits fair skin, grey or silver hair and cool colours.

Bronze is warm and golden-brown. It flatters warm and olive complexions, and it is lovely with gold jewellery and autumn colours.

Delicate details

Look at the arms and you will see a decorative pattern that catches the light, a little bit of jewellery for your face. The semi-rimless design keeps the frame airy, and the lower edge of the lens stays open, so your view is never interrupted.

Who it suits

The Ferucci 1791 is a compact frame, so it is ideal for smaller faces and for anyone who finds standard frames too wide. The gently rounded shape suits oval, square and heart-shaped faces.

Size and fit

The 50mm lenses and 16mm bridge make this a smaller fit, and the 130mm arms are slightly shorter than standard. The 32mm lens depth is on the slim side, so single vision or bifocal lenses are usually the best match.

Lens options for the Ferucci 1791

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

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Varifocal: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

Stronger prescription? A high-index lens keeps things thin and light. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is worth adding too, especially if you drive at night. It is also part of our reading glasses range.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optician and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optician 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.

From our lab to you

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Ferucci 1791 and checks every pair before it leaves our lab.

Looking after them

Wipe your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than the hem of your shirt, keep them in a case when they are in your bag, and never leave them on the dashboard on a hot day. Our lens care guide has a few more habits worth picking up.

Questions we often get

Is the Ferucci 1791 a small frame?

Yes. With 50mm lenses and 130mm arms, it suits smaller faces.

Can I wear the Ferucci 1791 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 varifocal lenses?

The 32mm lens depth is fairly shallow, so single vision or bifocal lenses usually work better.

What is semi-rimless?

A frame that runs along the top of the lenses only, leaving the lower edge open.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
