Abstract: In a temple for spectacles an end part of the temple distal from the spectacle lenses is bent to reverse on itself, in a downwards direction, so as to obtain a longitudinal element which can be distanced from the temple, and which is destined to rest on a user's ear. A mobile element, slidably coupled to the temple, is interpositioned between the temple and the longitudinal element. By displacing the mobile element towards the end of the longitudinal element constrained to the temple, the temple and the longitudinal element can be distanced one from another, an entity of such distancing being variable according to a position of the mobile element along the temple.
