True Vintage Revival // All New TVR 505 Panto

First introduced in the 1920s, this Panto shaped model is an homage to the 20th Century masters of arts, fashion, and architecture. An Andy Warhol style staple, the TVR® 505 is the perfect frame for both men and women thanks to its pantoscopic view and rounder shape. The double diamond rivets from the 80s complete the modern classic look that’s versatile for any fashion appetite. Customers and aficionados would also be able to enjoy the exquisite artistry of master craftsman Sawada-Yaemon whose family of master craftsmen started back in the Edo period.

The collection features two sizes — 46mm and 49mm — with a patented metal-core and Japanese engraving depicting The Great Wave of Kanagawa patterns to keep each piece unique. It is also important to note that TVR® creates small-batch collections to keep the authenticity and artisanal qualities of each eyepiece at pristinely maintained — and even the materials are sourced from small-batch artisans in Japan.
