Frequently Asked Questions
What are silver glasses?
Silver glasses are eyewear frames with a silver-coloured metallic finish.
You'll most commonly see silver used on metal frames, although it can also appear as a detail alongside other materials and colours. The term describes the appearance of the frame and doesn't necessarily mean that it's made from silver.
What's the difference between silver and gunmetal glasses?
Silver generally has a lighter, brighter metallic appearance. Gunmetal is usually darker, with charcoal or grey tones running through the finish.
If you want a lighter metal frame, silver is the natural place to start. If you prefer something darker but still metallic, gunmetal may be worth considering.
Are all silver glasses shiny?
No. While polished silver can have a noticeable shine, brushed, satin and matte silver glasses reflect much less light. If you like silver but don't want a particularly shiny frame, pay attention to the finish shown in the product photography.
Why do some silver frames look almost grey?
The finish of the metal can change how the colour appears. A highly polished frame will generally look brighter, while brushed or matte silver can have a softer grey appearance. Lighting can also make the same frame appear brighter or darker at different times.
Do silver glasses work well with minimalist frame designs?
They do. Silver lends itself particularly well to simple frames because the metal itself provides enough detail without needing much decoration.
Fine round rims, clean rectangles and geometric designs can all make use of silver while keeping the overall frame uncomplicated.
What does brushed silver mean on glasses?
A brushed finish has a fine texture rather than the highly reflective surface associated with polished metal.
This diffuses the light and gives the silver a softer, less glossy appearance. It's a good option if you like metallic eyewear but prefer a more muted finish.
Are silver glasses suitable as an everyday frame?
Yes. Their relatively neutral appearance makes silver frames easy to incorporate into everyday eyewear.
Rather than concentrating solely on the colour, look for a frame with the right measurements and construction for you. Comfort matters considerably more when you're going to be wearing a pair for hours at a time.
Can silver frames be fitted with varifocal lenses?
Many can. Whether an individual frame is suitable for varifocal lenses depends on its dimensions, construction and your prescription.
Available lens options will be shown when you customise your chosen frame.
