The front of the sand acetate square frame, photographed straight on against pale grey stone.

Foundry No. 9

Loam

Thick, pale, and the widest front in the catalogue.

  • From $245, frame only
  • 146 mm across the front

Eight millimetres of matte sand acetate across the brow. Pale frames are much rarer than dark ones and much harder to wear badly, because a pale rim next to skin reads as lighter than a black one of the same size. The widest thing we make, and the one we fit to faces nothing else fits.

No cart, no checkout, on purpose. This is a catalogue and not a shop. There is nothing to add to a basket and no checkout, because nobody should buy spectacles without a current prescription and a face measurement. Everything here can be looked at on the wall without an appointment.
