We’d like to introduce you to the newest member of our brand family: Lunettes Kollektion.  The private label of a small family of eyewear shops in Berlin, the brand is both vintage-inspired and contemporary.  The majority of the frames feature riveted hinges, an older style of temple attachment that results in a significantly stronger joint; the rivets may be clearly seen passing through the acetate.  While many vintage frames were smaller in size as a way of reducing weight (mineral glass lenses were far heavier and thicker than the high-index resins we use today), the Lunettes Kollektion frames feature retro shapes in larger, more stylish eyesizes.  Pictured here are four of the shapes we currently stock, but we have many more at our shop in Wicker Park.  We’ll post more of those later in the week.
