About this frame

Measured across the lenses and the bridge it comes to about 97mm, from a 35mm eye and a 27mm bridge, with 135mm temples. Narrow, as fronts go — it stops short of the temples on most faces. Because acetate is cut rather than moulded, the pattern runs right through the thickness of the rim. The frames are produced in the Jura, France's traditional eyewear region.

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.
