CHIYO Optical Waves



CHIYO Optical Waves
$355.00
A modern aviator frame rendered fully in Italian acetate named after Eva Masaki’s mother Chiyo, who came of age as a Japanese woman living in America in the 1960s and 70s. A celebration of the name Chiyo (ch-ee-yo), meaning “one thousand generations” in Japanese, the frames are an enduring style with an updated approach. Sensibly oversized and narrow through the temples, the hexagonal frame is designed to fit a wide range of face shapes. Handmade in Northern Italy from cellulose acetate by Mazzucchelli.
Translucent ice blue—a color echoing the rise and fall of ocean waves, the constant nature of change, and gentle rhythms of life.
Dimensions: eye 52 mm, bridge 18 mm, temple 141 mm
