This custom pair of Walter & Herbert Tolkien frames has been specially created for a client, named in honour of J.R.R. Tolkien, the renowned author of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Featuring striking coloured lenses paired with acetate frames, they offer a unique and distinctive look. Designed to make a bold statement, these glasses are truly one-of-a-kind and guaranteed to stand out from the crowd.

Now, let's take a closer look at the frame design and the custom enhancements made to the lenses.

THE FRAME

The Tolkien frames feature a more subtle, classic shape, in line with the understated elegance that J.R.R. Tolkien himself embodied. They are designed to be both stylish and versatile, suitable for those looking for eyewear that speaks a refinement and literary heritage.

Like many of Walter & Herbert's frames, the Tolkien model is crafted using premium materials such as high-quality acetate and metal, ensuring comfort, flexibility and durability. The frames have a sleek, polished finish.

Acetate is made from plant-based fibres, making it an eco-friendly choice, and it's known for its vibrant colours and ability to be easily shaped into intricate designs. This allows for a wide range of styles, from classic to contemporary.

THE LENSES

As per request of our client, we have added Zeiss DriveSafe lenses.

Zeiss DriveSafe lenses are designed to improve vision in low light and at night, with an anti-glare coating to reduce headlight reflections and enhanced contrast for clearer road visibility. They also feature a blue light filter to minimise digital eye strain, making them perfect for frequent drivers seeking better clarity and reduced eye fatigue. However, these lenses aren't just for drivers. They also offer improved comfort in varying light conditions, reducing glare and helping with eye strain, making them ideal for everyday activities like using digital devices or being outdoors in bright or low-light environments.

And for final touches, we have added a sunset violet tint to the lenses, making them pop out even more.
