Five Styles Reflecting the Designer's Dedication
The first collection from VONN features two acetate frame styles and three styles combining acetate and metal. The lineup includes both sunglasses and optical frames, with each available in four colors, adding to their appeal.
VONN's designs are characterized by their minimalist, timeless aesthetic, while also challenging conventional frame designs. The exquisite sizing, precise to the millimeter, and the subtle yet deliberate color choices express a Japanese sensibility that imbues details with aesthetic refinement.
Crafted by Skilled Artisans in Sabae, Fukui
Particularly noteworthy is the "ACE" (VN-005) model, featuring a front frame that sandwiches titanium within acetate. These round frames, crafted using traditional eyewear techniques, exude a sense of luxury and align with current trends. The quality is palpable upon holding them.
Finished by Japan's leading eyewear factories, these frames are understated yet impeccable. The designer comments, "We aim for them to be neutral pieces that naturally blend with the wearer's style, allowing each individual to find their own value in them."
