A classic hard density cellulose acetate frame with a subtle sloping silhouette and understated sculpting for added wearability. This time-honoured staple is the perfect everyday frame.
Cut from hard density cellulose acetate, a plant based material made from cotton and wood pulp. Each sheet is dried for 72 hours before it is shaped, so it takes a deep, high gloss polish and holds its form.
