Clear and crystal glasses

In clear glasses frames, also called crystal frames, transparency reveals thickness and construction details. The selection brings together colourless frames, subtle tints and contrasting elements: the effect varies with the material and the light. Check each model’s photographs and material details.

A clear frame does not disappear on the face: we explain why in the Journal, in Clear frame glasses: how to choose a crystal frame. Discover other finishes among our translucent optical frames and, for the sun, our crystal sunglasses. To compare the role of the material, explore acetate glasses and our titanium and acetate guide.

Models to start your comparison

Compare the November Light, Smokelight and OL finishes in the photographs: a crystal frame can have a visible tint. Proportions also vary, from the oval Rue du Soleil to the aviator P20.

Measurements in mm: lens width – bridge – temple. Lens width is not the total width of the frame.
