Karen Walker Immortal Sunglasses | Saffron Jellybean, Bio-Acetate, Blue Accent

Karen Walker Immortal B Sunglasses

Colour: Saffron Jellybean

RRP: $300

The Immortal is a unique take on the classic cat's eye shape made from bio acetate in the crystal saffron colour. Tonal vintage sepia tint lenses accentuate it. The temples are splashed with cobalt blue, made even more striking by the signature Karen Walker arrow in polished gold.

These frames are created using a new technique. The shiny crystal front is contrasted by a frosted, matt jellybean-esque finish to the inner. The result is individuality at its best! This frame is made out of premium bio-acetate. This is a more natural version of acetate made from wood pulp. It is cultivated and harvested within the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) guidelines. A unique vegetable-derived solution replaces traditional chemical plasticiser. Since approximately 68% of its raw materials are derived from natural and renewable sources, the frames are both bio-based and biodegradable.

Features: 

• good UV protection 
• high protection against sun glare 
• Comes with a hard case and cleaning cloth 
• Crafted in premium bio-acetate to phase out chemical additives and optimise biodegradability at end of life. 
• Can be fitted with prescription lenses
