Originally trained as an architect, Pierre Balmain’s early mastery of the principles of engineering made possible his life-long passion for the boldest possible sculptural constructions. Inspired by that unmatched flair in elegantly balancing style and structure, the new Pierre expertly melds together Japanese Titanium and Acetate to create striking temples that are fused to powerful floating lenses. The frame’s deftly balanced mix of inspirations from Parisian couture and architectural flair perfectly mirrors the distinctive genius of Pierre Balmain and the color combinations—black and gold, black and chocolate, silver and blue—riff on some of house founder’s favorite mixes. One special Pierre frame, relying on a luxurious white gold-genuine buffalo horn blend and real gold plated titanium, is offered in a very limited edition of 200 numbered frames. Handmade in Japan. Includes Balmain box, hard case, soft case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.
