Lunettes en acétate et titane

This material pairing allows different parts of the frame to contribute different visual qualities. Acetate can define the front through color and thickness, while titanium components can create cleaner, finer structural lines.

• Square frames make the acetate outline feel more architectural.
• Round frames soften the material contrast through curved edges.
• Browline frames place more emphasis across the upper rim.
• Geometric frames make angles and mixed construction more noticeable.
• Transparent acetate reveals more of the supporting details.
• Tortoise and multitone finishes introduce variation across the front.

Titanium is known for a high strength-to-weight ratio, but the finished weight still depends on the acetate thickness, lenses and complete frame construction.

Focus first on the acetate front because its shape and thickness often create the strongest visual impression. Then consider whether the titanium details reinforce or soften that outline.

Round Faces
Square or geometric frames can introduce straighter edges and more defined angles.

Square Faces
Round frames or designs with softened corners can provide contrast to a strong jawline.

Oval Faces
Square, round, browline and geometric shapes can all work. Choose according to the amount of structure you prefer.

Long Faces
A wider front or deeper lens can create more balance than a narrow, shallow frame. Browline styles also add horizontal emphasis.

Heart-Shaped Faces
Round or softly shaped frames can reduce emphasis across the upper face. A browline creates a stronger top line when you prefer more definition.

Diamond Faces
Rounded edges can soften prominent cheekbones, while geometric frames create a deliberate angular contrast.

Confirm the bridge fit, total width and temple length before choosing by face shape alone.

Color controls the visual weight of the acetate front, while the finer titanium elements affect the balance of the complete frame.

• Black acetate creates the strongest front outline.
• Tortoise introduces warmth and breaks up broad surfaces.
• Transparent acetate makes the frame feel more open.
• Grey and brown provide quieter alternatives to solid black.
• Blue, green and orange introduce a more expressive accent.
• Dark titanium details blend more closely into the frame.
• Contrasting titanium details make the mixed construction more visible.
• A wider or thicker front increases the impact of the acetate.
• A slimmer front creates a more restrained transition between materials.

Use product measurements to confirm fit; the material pairing alone does not indicate whether a frame will be small, medium or wide on your face.
