Gold Flat Top Aviator Metal Sunglasses with Double Bridge
A flat-top aviator in lightweight gold-tone metal, with a double bridge, adjustable nose pads and flat temples that run straight to a bent tip. The lenses are polarised and carry UV400 filtering.
A short run on the one gold-tone front, and the grey goes before the brown.
The airstairs, and the first look down
The cabin door opens and the light comes in flat off the tarmac. You put the frame on at the top of the steps, before the handrail, and walk down into a line of people who have been sitting in the dark for hours. A flat bar across the brow, squared at the corners, reading as one straight line above the eyes — that is what the person waiting at the bottom sees first.
What changes is the line of the face. The straight brow bar sets a horizontal where the eye expects a curve, and the squared corners carry it out past the cheek, so the whole upper half of the face reads as something that was decided rather than grabbed. Then you lift them off mid-sentence to find a passport, and the face underneath arrives as a second piece of information. The second look concludes that you travel often and pack well.
By the coach to the terminal, two people have looked twice.
A double bridge in drawn gold-tone metal
The front is lightweight gold-tone metal: a brow bar crossing both lenses in a single line, a second bar at the bridge beneath it, and corners squared rather than curved, which is what separates this shape from a standard teardrop. The rim stays fine enough that the structure shows as line rather than mass.
Your hand finds the nose pads first — adjustable, so the height on the face is set rather than accepted. The temples are flat metal, running straight back and turning down only at the bent tip, so they sit against the head without a joint you can feel. Polarisation takes out the flat glare that comes off wet roads, car bonnets, water and sand.
The front, the lenses, the tints
- Flat-top aviator in lightweight gold-tone metal
- Double bridge, with a brow bar across both lenses
- Adjustable nose pads and flat metal temples to a bent tip
- Polarised lenses with UV400 filtering
- Near-black grey keeps colours true in strong sun
- Warm brown lifts contrast in flat or overcast light
Two tints, one gold-tone front
The selector holds gold / black and gold / brown. Both run the same gold-tone frame, so the only thing that changes between them is the lens.
What travels with it
Order more than a single pair and a complimentary gift travels in the same parcel, chosen by us and added without being asked for.
| Piece | Sunglasses |
|---|---|
| Lenses | Polarised, UV400 |
| Brow bar | Crosses both lenses in a single line |
| Corners | Squared rather than curved |
| Temples | Flat metal temples that run straight to a bent tip |
| Colours | gold / black, gold / brown |
Two finishes, one polarised run
Both finishes carry the polarised lens rather than only the dearer one, which is what selling direct allows and what keeps the run short. Lens runs are cut to a quantity rather than carried continuously, and the grey empties first. A return of the same run is not guaranteed.
Choose the tint while both are still listed. If the shape is not what you pictured on your face, send it back within fourteen days.
