— On the Ambroix

Drawn for a client who wears one pair of glasses for years and wanted them built like it.

The first Ambroix was cut for a client who, in the studio's notes, wears one pair of glasses for years and wanted them built like it. We built the opposite of what he'd worn before.

The result favours the browline line the studio keeps returning to: heavier where the eye expects weight, and light everywhere the skin meets the frame. It is cut in palladium, 22g finished, and fitted with a palladium core hinge.
