What is acetate?

Acetate is a premium material made from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plants like cotton and wood pulp. Unlike petroleum-based plastics, acetate is considered a more eco-conscious choice, known for its luxurious finish, rich color, and impressive durability. It’s a favorite in high-end eyewear for good reason.

Why We Chose Acetate

When designing our frames, we chose high-quality acetate for its balance of beauty, comfort, and strength - a reflection of our commitment to refined materials and timeless craftsmanship.

What makes acetate special:

• Lightweight Yet Sturdy: Acetate frames are incredibly lightweight for comfortable, all-day wear, but don’t let that fool you. They’re also sturdy and resilient, holding their shape and structure through daily use.

• Rich, Dimensional Color: Unlike standard plastic, acetate is layered and polished by hand, allowing for deep, luminous tones that won’t fade with time.

• Customizable Fit: Acetate is flexible and easily adjusted, meaning your sunglasses can be tailored for the perfect fit, sitting comfortably and securely all day long.

• Craftsmanship-Friendly: The nature of acetate allows artisans to sculpt and polish it to a flawless finish, creating clean lines and smooth edges that elevate the final product.
