Sunglasses Plus
The oversized square in thick acetate, with a gold-tone ornament at each hinge. Four colourways, two of them translucent.
Polarised lenses with anti-glare treatment and full UV400 filtering.
Scale you can see through
Most oversized frames get their presence from being dark. Two of these four do the opposite: the acetate is left unpigmented, so you see the full thickness of the front and the shape reads as volume rather than as a block of colour. It is the same square either way — what changes is how much of the room you can see through it.
Photographed here in the translucent rose finish. The same front is offered in four colourways.
Cut thick, finished clear
The front is moulded acetate, squared at every corner and carried well beyond the lens on each side. Where the material is left translucent the edge shows its full depth, which is unforgiving work: any flaw in the block reads straight through the finish.
The temples are wide flat arms on metal hinges, each set with a raised gold-tone ornament on the outer face behind the joint. The arm tapers slightly past the ornament and finishes flat rather than curled.
The frame is acetate; the translucent finishes are the same material left unpigmented.
Where it sits
- An oversized square that covers well past the outer corner of the eye
- Thick acetate spreads the weight across the bridge instead of pinching it
- A moulded acetate bridge, so the height on the nose is fixed rather than adjustable
- Wide temples close off the side, so less light comes in from the edge
- Reads large on any face, which is the look rather than a fit issue
Filtered, not just tinted
The lenses are polarised with an anti-glare treatment and full UV400 filtering across UVA and UVB. Polarisation is what removes the flat white shine off a wet road, a windscreen or open water; UV400 is the protection figure, and it is the number worth reading on any pair.
Every colourway is a gradient — darker at the top, clearing towards the bottom — which is what keeps a lens this large from feeling closed in.
Four colourways, one front
The four options are listed as Rose, Black, Black I and Brown — the two black options are the translucent acetate and the solid one shown above. Pick by name from the options above the page.
Why it costs what it costs
Cutting a thick front from a clear acetate block is the least forgiving version of this job: there is nowhere for a flaw to hide and every edge has to be polished rather than simply finished. A polarised lens costs more than a tint. None of that is where the usual shelf price comes from.
We sell direct. There is no shop floor between the frame and you and no distributor taking a cut on the way, so the retail margin that normally sits on top of a build like this is simply not in the price. What that money pays for instead is the lens — polarised with UV400 on all four colourways rather than on the expensive one only.
- Sold direct — no retail margin stacked on the frame
- Polarised, UV400 lenses rather than a plain tint
- Moulded acetate front rather than a thin printed plastic one

Is this a large frame?
Yes. The lens is cut oversized and the temple is broad. On a narrow face it will read big, which for this shape is the point.
Are the nose pads adjustable?
No. The bridge is moulded into the acetate front, so the height on the nose is fixed by the design.
What does polarised actually change?
It removes the flat glare that bounces off horizontal surfaces — wet tarmac, a car bonnet, water, snow. Colours look deeper and you squint less. It is separate from UV filtering, which this lens also carries at UV400.
What is the difference between the two black options?
One is a translucent acetate and the other a solid. They are listed as Black and Black I; both carry the same lens.
Will a translucent frame yellow?
Acetate can warm slightly over years of sun exposure, and a clear finish shows it sooner than a dark one. Keeping the pair out of a hot car is what slows it.
How should it be cleaned?
Rinse under cool water to lift grit, then dry with the cloth supplied. Keep acetate away from heat — a car dashboard in summer is what warps a frame, not wear.
Four colourways, and not many of each
Each finish is held in a small run. The translucent pair go before the solids do, and when a colourway goes it is not always brought back.
Pick your colourway above and add it to the bag. If it is not right on your face, send it back — the only thing you risk is missing the one you wanted.
