Brookmeyer features a sculptured comfort bridge and a gentle up-curving brow-line, ideal for the wearer looking for a solid frame with a 50s feel. 💫

One of our newest acetates, Blue Tri, reminds us of the ocean early in the morning, with just a touch of dawn breaking across the sky. Our beautiful Garland sunglasses are the perfect canvas. Every frame is a journey here at #BlackEyewear HQ. #acetate #optics #independenteyewear

@GITIKASINGS Oh no, So sorry - it's like losing a good friend when you have to retire a frame.

@RROpticians This and I am gutted as they broke and I don’t think you do them anymore

Robert Roope behind the scenes . We’re a small company of eyewear-obsessives, - he’s probably fitted many of you personally. He’s been doing this for over 50 years now and did we mention he was also Stanley Kubrick’s eye man? What’s your favourite Black Eyewear design?

The acetate of our dreams. A crystal take on rose gold, the colour brings subtle warmth and interest to every face, without being overbearing. Meet Brown Tri. #blackeyewear #blackeyewearalice #rosegold #acetate #optics #unisex

The enduring legacy of round frames. Round has always been imbued with elegance and intelligence, and it’s remained thoughtful and interesting, with unisex appeal over the decades. #roundframes #roundglasses #historyofeyewear #blackeyewear #eyeweardesign #optics #robertroope

Some of our most popular frames; Miles (pictured), Cannonball, Courtney and Lux feature a straight upper rim, which contributes a strong set of lines to a face. All of these frames are unisex. #eyeweardesign #eyewear #optics #britishdesign #midcenturyeyewear #blackeyewear
