A browline frame — tortoiseshell acetate above, gold-tone metal below — with polarised lenses. One size.
Polarised lenses on a metal and plastic frame, stated by the maker. Supplied in one size.
Two materials, one frame
The browline is the shape that puts all its weight along the top: a thick tortoiseshell brow carried across the face, and a fine gold-tone wire holding the bottom of the lens. It reads as a heavy frame from above the eye and as almost nothing below it, which is why it flatters a face that a full rim would close in.
Supplied in a single tortoiseshell and gold colourway, one size.
Brow in acetate, rim in metal
The upper half is a thick moulded brow in a tortoiseshell pattern, carried out past the outer corner and into the temple in one continuous piece. Below the lens the rim is a fine gold-tone wire, so the lower edge of the frame is a line rather than a border.
The arms match the brow in the same tortoiseshell material with a metal core at the hinge, and there are small pads at the bridge. The two-material build is what the shape is — a browline in one material is just a rimmed frame.
The maker states a metal and plastic frame with polarised lenses.
Where it sits
- A medium-wide browline that sits along the line of the eyebrow
- Thick above the lens, fine below it — the shape opens the lower half of the face
- Small pads at the bridge set the height on the nose
- Tortoiseshell arms with a metal core, so they hold an adjustment
- One size — cut to a standard medium width rather than to a range
Polarised, as stated
The maker states polarised lenses on this frame. Polarisation is what removes the flat white shine that bounces off a wet road, a windscreen or open water — colours look deeper and you squint less in bright conditions.
A UV figure is not published for this model, so we do not quote one. The lens is a warm brown tint rather than a neutral grey.
One frame, four views
Supplied in a single tortoiseshell and gold-tone colourway, one size.
Why it costs what it costs
A browline is two frames in one. The acetate brow and the metal lower rim have to be made separately and joined so that the lens sits square between them, which is more assembly than a single-material frame needs. A polarised lens costs more than a tint.
We sell direct. There is no shop floor between the frame and you and no distributor taking a cut on the way, so the retail margin that normally sits on top of a build like this is simply not in the price. What that money pays for instead is the build — two materials properly joined and a polarised lens rather than a plain one.

Who does a browline suit?
Most faces, which is why the shape has lasted. It draws a line along the brow and leaves the lower half open, so it adds structure without closing the face in.
Is there more than one colour?
No. This model is supplied in a single tortoiseshell and gold colourway, one size.
What does polarised actually change?
It removes the flat glare that bounces off horizontal surfaces — wet tarmac, a car bonnet, water, snow. Colours look deeper and you squint less.
Are these UV rated?
The maker states polarised lenses but does not publish a UV figure for this model, so we do not quote one. The two are separate specifications.
Can the fit be adjusted?
Yes, within reason. The arms have a metal core, so an optician can ease them to sit closer or wider and the adjustment will hold.
How should it be cleaned?
Rinse under cool water to lift grit, then dry with a soft cloth. Dry-wiping a dusty lens is what causes the fine scratching people blame on the coating.
One colourway, held in a small run
This is a single-run frame rather than a carried line. When the run is gone it is not automatically repeated — and a tortoiseshell browline is the one shape people come back for after they have let it go.
Add it to the bag while it is here. If it is not right on your face, send it back — the only thing you risk is missing it.
