Chunky Round Acetate Optical Frames with Keyhole Bridge and Engraved Temple Details

This vintage-inspired Optical Frame combines a bold round silhouette with a classic keyhole bridge, substantial cellulose acetate construction and distinctive engraved details inside the temples.

The 47 mm round lens shape gives the frame a compact, balanced appearance, while the 22 mm bridge and thicker acetate profile reinforce its traditional optical character. Double-dot metal rivets at the endpieces and temple fronts add a subtle hardware detail, while the engraved metal core becomes visible through selected translucent acetate colors.

Design & Craftsmanship

Chunky Round Acetate Front

The main feature of this frame is its compact round shape combined with a substantial acetate rim. Rather than using an extremely thin round profile, the thicker construction gives the front more visual weight and makes the frame suitable for collections focused on vintage-inspired acetate eyewear.

The front edges are shaped and polished to create controlled bevels around the rim.

Keyhole Bridge

The keyhole-style bridge is an important part of the frame's character. It breaks up the otherwise continuous round shape and gives the front a more traditional optical appearance.

Combined with the 22 mm bridge width, it creates a proportion that works well with the compact 47 mm lens size.

Engraved Temple Core

The temple construction provides another layer of detail.

A patterned metal core is integrated inside the acetate temples. In translucent colors such as slate blue, the engraved texture can be seen through the acetate, adding visual interest without adding decoration to the front.

Double-Rivet Hardware

Two-dot metal rivets are positioned at the front endpieces and repeated on the temple fronts. The small hardware details reinforce the vintage direction of the design while maintaining a relatively clean overall appearance.

Technical Specifications

Dimensions are measured manually. A 1–3 mm variance may occur.
