Kirk Originals Dark Tortoiseshell "Erno" Handmade Sunglasses
With Brutalist design features, the Erno frame was born in West London in the shadow of Trellick Tower. This is the sharpest frame we’ve ever created thanks to its squared oval shape frame front and paddle arms that were worn by some of the early 20th century’s greatest minds.
- Entirely handmade in England in a limited-run production starting with a single sheet of Mazzucchelli acetate
- Thick and above-average 8mm front balanced with 4mm temples
- Frame front bevelled, sanded, filed, polished and buffed by hand
- Clean front with two round pins on each temple
- Heat-bumped regular bridge using 70-year-old machine
- With a custom vice, the temples are bent by hand with muscle-memory
- Subjected to two 16-hour sessions of woodchip barrel tumbling and polishing
- Premium German-made hardware, including pins, hinges and charniers
- 100% UVA & UVB protection lenses from Divel Italia cut specifically to size using state-of-the-art machinery in England
