Description

Barely there. The chrome hearts rimless glasses use a wire-thin silver metal frame around small hexagonal lenses, so slight that from a few feet away you mostly see the lens and not the frame at all. Lenses are a flat smoke grey. The detail sits at the hinge, an ornate silver fleur casting on each side, and there’s fine engraving running along the top rim of each lens. Arms are slim silver metal finishing in black acetate tips. Whole thing weighs almost nothing on the nose.

Why Choose This Product?

Small lenses come and go and then come back, and this shape is the version that lasts. The hexagon reads sharper than a round frame and less severe than a rectangle. Because the frame is so thin, the silver detailing at the hinge is the only thing your eye lands on, and that’s exactly where the brand puts its work. These sit at the opposite end of the range from the thick acetate frames. Pick them if you don’t want your glasses to be the loudest thing you own.

Care Instructions

Thin metal bends. Take them off with two hands, one on each arm, because pulling from one side is what puts a frame out of alignment. Microfibre for the lenses. Silver dulls slowly against skin oil, so wipe the hinges and nose pads with a dry cloth every so often. Case them when they’re off. Any optician can re-straighten a bent metal frame, but prevention costs nothing.

FAQs

Are they truly rimless?
Not quite. There’s a very thin metal rim holding each lens, fine enough that it nearly disappears at a distance.

Do small lenses block enough light?
Less than a large pair, since light comes in around the edges. Fine for city wear, less so for bright open glare.

Will the frame bend easily?
Thin metal always can. Handle them with two hands and they stay true.

What are the arm tips made of?
Black acetate, moulded over the metal so they sit comfortably behind the ear.

Can they take prescription lenses?
Small hexagonal lenses limit stronger prescriptions. Check with your optician before ordering.
