The Vik is a purposeful, architectural rounded frame, featuring a 46mm lens and a prominent 25mm bridge. This specific proportion is designed to sit securely and high on the bridge, providing immediate definition for those who appreciate a compact frame with a strong, intentional character. It is a durable staple for an everyday wardrobe that values technical precision and independent design.
Hand-finished from premium Italian bio-based acetate, each Vik frame undergoes an extended curing process to ensure the material remains stable and maintains its professional adjustment over time. The internal architecture is built for longevity, featuring signature 18k gold-plated hardware and seven-barrel Comotech hinges to provide a smooth, high-strength feel through years of use.
- Tailored Geometric Profile: A 46mm lens combined with a wide 25mm bridge ensures a centered, high-clarity fit that emphasizes the eyes without overwhelming the features.
- Carl Zeiss Bio-Based Lenses: Outfitted with premium optics featuring a Gold ET anti-reflective back coating to eliminate glare and provide superior visual comfort.
- Signature Universal Fit: Equipped with specialized nose pads specifically engineered to provide a comfortable fit across a broad range of bridge shapes.
- Ergonomic Engineering: Features custom decorative core wire and ergonomically milled temples to ensure a stable, pressure-free fit for all-day wear.
- Technical Construction: Finished with rubber-coated screws and gold-foiled printing for a high-strength, artisan build.
Style Tip: The Vik’s unique bridge-to-lens ratio makes it a standout for those with narrower faces or more prominent bridges. The frame's bold colourways provide warm, organic contrast to its sharp geometric lines. It pairs exceptionally well with structured tailoring—think a dark blazer or a crisp, buttoned-up collar—providing a focused, intellectual finishing touch.

Can you tell me more about the brands?
We don’t believe in mass-produced fashion. Instead, we curate a selection of independent eyewear that you won’t find at a big-box store.
We look for designers who share our values: people who prioritize sculptural design, premium materials like Italian acetate and surgical-grade titanium, and an uncompromising commitment to fit.
Whether you're looking for a bold statement or a quiet classic, our collections are chosen for their character, not their brand name.
