Layered Acetate Thick Square Optical Frames | Ready Stock & Low MOQ

Layered Acetate Thick Square Optical Frames with Double Rivet Details

This Optical Frame combines a bold thick-square silhouette with layered acetate color details and classic double-rivet hardware. The shape takes inspiration from the familiar Wayfarer-style profile, while the layered front construction gives the frame more visual depth.

Made from cellulose acetate, the frame features polished bevel edges, two-dot metal rivets at the endpieces, multi-barrel hinges and temples with an internal metal core. The combination gives the frame a substantial vintage character while keeping the construction suitable for everyday optical collections.

Design & Craftsmanship

Layered Thick Acetate Front

The main visual feature is the substantial square front. Selected colorways use contrasting acetate layers, creating a darker upper section and warmer or translucent lower section. This treatment adds definition to the thick rim without relying on additional decorative components.

The front edges are shaped and polished to give the acetate a clean surface and controlled bevel around the rim.

Double-Rivet Hardware

Two small metal rivets are positioned at the front endpieces and repeated on the temple fronts. Besides their vintage-inspired appearance, the hardware is integrated into the frame construction rather than used simply as surface decoration.

Structured Temple Construction

The acetate temples incorporate an internal metal core for structural support. In translucent colorways, the core becomes part of the visual design, while opaque colors create a more understated appearance.

The temples are finished with multi-barrel hinges to match the stronger proportions of the frame.

Technical Specifications

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