Rectangle and Square glasses - from sleek to distinct


In addition to round glasses or oval sunglasses, “angular” is another eyewear design that can be defined by a geometric shape.
It has to be said, however, that we have also assigned models to our category of angular glasses, which look only rudimentarily angular, right-angled or square, because a pure angular shape of glasses in a geometric sense is very rare.
An example of this would be L.A. Eyeworks’ Burbank model or some of the Bauhaus glasses by Barbara Angeletti.
In general, it can be said that angular glasses are mainly striking men’s glasses, some of which can also be described as somewhat conservative in design. Such creations can be found in almost all eyewear collections of all designers, so that no eyewear designer would be explicitly associated with this style.
These are predominantly angular metal frames, which can be equipped with both optical lenses and sunglasses. Therefore, in our angular eyewear category, eyewear frames with demo lenses and sunglasses are found in equal proportions. Large parts of the vintage eyewear collections from Dunhill, Neostyle and Metzler take this line and stress that angular vintage glasses are predominantly vintage metal glasses for men.
