Elevate your eyewear game with this meticulously handcrafted frame, made in Italy from 8mm bio-circular acetate. The design showcases a sophisticated interplay of polished and raw finishes, adding depth and visual intrigue. The arms are secured with premium 5-barrel German steel hinges, featuring functional triangular rivets and coated safety screws for durability. Subtle branding is achieved through metallic logos on the outer temple tips, while the inner temples boast laser-etched Japanese wave patterns for an added touch of elegance. This frame is compatible with prescription lenses, which can be fitted by a licensed optician. Crafted in a family-owned factory in Valdobbiadene, Italy, this eyewear represents the pinnacle of artisanal craftsmanship.
The frame features a classic round shape, enhanced by a mid-century-inspired keyhole nose bridge, perfect for those with a taste for timeless design. For the history enthusiasts, the ‘P’ denotes ‘pantoscopic’—referring to the angle at which the frame tilts towards the cheeks—while the ‘3’ indicates the 3mm difference between lens width and height (47mm width and 44mm height).
Unlike conventional acetate, which relies on petroleum-based ingredients, 3sixteen’s ‘bio-circular’ acetate replaces them with recycled acetic anhydride, making this frame 100% biodegradable and an eco-conscious choice for the discerning wearer.
