Ray-Ban RB 3211 Shield Sunglasses with White Metal Frame - A pair of Ray-Ban ”Shield” style sunglasses, model RB 3211. These sunglasses feature a continuous, wrap-around gray gradient lens set into a minimalist, semi-rimless white coated metal frame. The thin temples are finished in matching white with black plastic earpieces. The signature Ray-Ban logo is etched on the upper right lens and featured in relief on the exterior of both temples. The interior right temple is marked ”RB 3211 032/8G LARGE, ” and the left temple is marked ”Ray-Ban MADE IN ITALY CE.” The item includes an original black pebbled leatherette snap case with a red felt lining. Frame Width: 145 mm; Lens Height: 48 mm. The Ray-Ban RB3211 shield in white metal frame is a distinctive variant of what is already an unusual Ray-Ban silhouette. The 3211 shield - a wraparound sports-luxury hybrid - was produced for a relatively short window and the white metal frame version is among the rarest colorways. Ray-Ban shield styles from the early 2000s have seen significant appreciation as sport-luxe eyewear has returned to fashion prominence.
