Black Oversized Thick Square Sparkle Acetate Sunglasses
An oversized square cut from thick acetate, with a flat brow, a level lower edge and a long textured metal panel set into each temple. Polarised lenses, gradient on most finishes.
Each finish is cut from its own sheet, and sheets run out.
Out on the water, past the harbour wall
Past the harbour wall the water turns choppy and everyone on board puts a hand on something. Spray, glare, hair pulled flat — and the frame holding its line across all of it, because it is cut heavy enough not to move. The man at the wheel looks over twice.
Glare on open water is the test a frame either passes or looks silly failing. This one squares the brow line, sits level along the lower edge, and lifts at the outer corner just before it turns down, so the whole face reads composed in conditions that make everyone else squint. The second look, when you push them up into your hair, decides something about you.
Back at the pontoon somebody asks about them before they ask about the trip.
A flat brow and a lifted corner
The front is cut from thick acetate with a flat brow line and a level lower edge, and an outer corner that lifts slightly before it turns down. Each finish is cut from its own sheet, so the colour runs through the material rather than sitting on the surface of it.
Set into the acetate along each temple is a long textured metal panel, with a round medallion at the hinge where the frame folds. The bridge is moulded into the front, so the pair meets the nose as one piece. Most finishes run a gradient lens, dark at the brow and clearing towards the lower edge.

Cut acetate and inset metal, in batches
Each finish is cut from its own sheet and the metal panel is set into the acetate by hand, which means the colours are made as batches rather than carried continuously. When a sheet is finished the colour goes with it, and a return of the same run is not guaranteed.
Sold direct with no retail margin on top, which is what keeps cut acetate and inset metal at this price. Fourteen days to send it back.
