Suisen (Narcissus) col. S2 Black

The "Suisen" is a Wellington frame that adds a powerful impression to the eyes with its linear browline and substantial, thick design.

The front is crafted from 10mm thick acetate by Takiron. The area around the lenses is beveled inward in a "television cut," reminiscent of vintage CRT monitors. The recessed lenses and sharp transitions between planes create deep shadows, a design that allows the thickness of the frame to be felt even from the front.

The front is polished once, then undergoes a second round of cutting, with the final finish carefully hand-polished by artisans. The sharp edges of the silhouette and the glossy texture give the voluminous form a refined expression.

Both ends of the front feature rivet decorations inspired by the traditional Japanese "Kasumi" (mist) pattern. The front and the thick temples are connected by a seven-barrel hinge, creating a robust structure that supports the substantial frame.

Col. S2 Black is a colorway where lustrous black is accented by silver-colored metal parts. Through the transparent sections of the temples, one can glimpse the engraved core metal, which is modeled after the transoms of traditional Japanese architecture, adding a delicate beauty to the power of the black.

This is a piece where bold design breathes with traditional Japanese aesthetics and the meticulous craftsmanship of Sabae.
