About this frame

The numbers are 56–19–145, which puts about 131mm across the front and 36mm of lens height. That is the middle of the range, and the width most faces land on. Metal holds an adjustment, and it holds this shape at a thickness acetate could not. The temple screws are the ones from the Santos watch bezel, carried across from 1904 and still doing the same job.

How the numbers work

Eye is the width of one lens, bridge is the gap between them, and temple is the length of the arm — all in millimetres. Your own frames carry the same three numbers, usually printed inside the left arm.
