The Loophole: This means a company can manufacture the frames, the temples, and the lenses in a cheap factory in China, ship the parts to Italy, and simply perform the final assembly (putting in the screws and lenses) in Italy.
The Result: Because the "final stage" happened in Italy, the stamp is legally valid, even if 90% of the labor and material costs were incurred in China.
TLDR: Made in Italy is meaningless today.
