Vintage Narrow Oval Acetate Optical Frames | Ready Stock & Low MOQ

This Optical Frame combines a narrow oval silhouette with subtly tapered almond-shaped contours, giving the design a distinct vintage character without making the front overly decorative.

Made from cellulose acetate, the frame features a smooth polished surface and full-rim construction. Ribbed metal accent details are placed at the temple transitions, creating a clear visual break between the acetate front and temples. The combination works particularly well for optical collections looking for a smaller, retro-inspired frame with more detail than a basic oval shape.

For buyers sourcing Acetate Optical Frames, this style is available through our Ready Stock program with low MOQ options. Selected color, logo and packaging adjustments can also be discussed through our Semi Custom service.

Design & Craftsmanship

Narrow Oval Front

The frame uses a smaller oval geometry rather than a wide, oversized oval. The slightly tapered almond contour gives the front a more defined appearance while maintaining the characteristic softness of a rounded optical frame.

Ribbed Metal Temple Accents

The most distinctive detail is the ribbed metal accent positioned where the front meets the temple. Instead of relying on color alone, the textured metal creates a visible transition between materials and gives the side profile additional structure.

Polished Acetate Surface

The cellulose acetate construction is finished with a smooth polished surface that allows the color and pattern of each acetate option to remain visible. The relatively narrow front also keeps the overall design visually light despite the substantial acetate construction.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this frame be fitted with prescription lenses?

Yes. The frame is supplied with clear demo lenses and can be fitted with prescription lenses by an optical professional, subject to the final prescription, lens material and fitting requirements.

What makes the design different from a standard oval frame?

The main difference is the combination of a narrow oval/almond front with ribbed metal accents at the temple transitions. This gives the frame a more structured side profile while keeping the front relatively clean.

Can I add my own logo?

Yes. Selected Ready Stock styles can support Semi Custom branding options such as logo engraving or printing, depending on the frame construction and order requirements. Packaging and selected color options can also be discussed.

Can you develop a completely new version?
