MixedMaterial Architecture & Craft Details
- Fluid Contour Front Frames
The front rims are sculpted with thick, rounded oval lines featuring a very subtle upswept lift at the upper corners. This classic geometry softens strong facial structures and offers a universally flattering silhouette for highvolume retail.
- ShimmerInlaid Composite Temples
The standout feature is the composite temple construction. Sleek, goldplated slim metal arms house a recessed channel filled with a durable, textured glitter panel that catches light beautifully, transitioning into polished acetate ear tips.
- Striated and Solid Material Depth
Available in a rich, woodgrain style striated red and a timeless polished midnight black. The translucent properties of the red variant offer an organic, luxury texture that pairs cleanly with the warm metallic hardware.
Optical and Ergonomic Specifications
- HighDefinition Visual Filters
Fitted with impactresistant dark tint TAC lenses that filter out blinding glare while maintaining exceptional color contrast. The lens mounting is seamlessly sealed within the acetate grooves to prevent popping under thermal shifts.
The slim metal temples offer native lateral flexibility, gently hugging the head contour without digging in behind the ears. This reduces the pinching common in fullacetate frames, making them exceptionally comfortable for allday wear.
- Integrated Weight Balance
By engineering a dense acetate front with slim metal temples, the physical center of gravity is distributed evenly across the bridge and the ears, eliminating the heavy forwardtilt common in oversized glasses.
B2B Merchandising & Ordering Perks
- Component Level Private Labeling
Our factory can customize your brand logo via highcontrast laser marking on the inner acetate ear tips or via precision stamping on the metal temple segments.
- Flexible Material Swapping
The internal glitter fabric inlay can be swapped for custom textures, including genuine leather inserts, matte enamels, or custom pearlized resins to align with your brand's seasonal collection themes.
- Optimized Display Longevity
The goldplated metal components are finished with an antitarnish clear coat, preventing oxidation, discoloration, or fingerprint marking while resting on open retail display racks.
Product FAQ
Q1: Does the glitter inlay on the metal temple scratch off or shed particles over time?
A1: No. The textured glitter element is deeply embedded into a machined channel and bonded using industrial resin adhesives, ensuring a completely flat finish that won't shed or peel.
Q2: How do these combination metalacetate frames compare in weight to fullacetate models?
A2: They are considerably lighter. Replacing the thick acetate temples with slim, lowprofile goldplated metal significantly cuts down the overall mass, offering a weightless feeling on the face.
Q3: Is the gold plating on the temples hypoallergenic and resistant to cosmetic tarnishing?
A3: Yes, we apply a nickelfree, hypoallergenic gold plating sealed under a protective baked topcoat. This effectively isolates the metal from sweat, makeup oils, and hairspray.
Q4: Can we order different metal finishes like polished silver or rose gold for custom production?
A4: Absolutely. For custom OEM orders matching our production minimums, we can adjust the hardware plating to silver, gunmetal, or rose gold to complement your custom frame choices.
Q5: Which specific retail demographics or store environments see the highest conversion for this frame?
A5: This retroglam silhouette performs exceptionally well in cruisewear boutiques, premium resort gift shops, and midtohighend fashion retail chains targeting women who favor classic, elevated aesthetics.
