Ă— BBS ANTIQUE JADE SUNGLASSES
Antique jade sunglasses with light grey lens from Rigards × Boris Bidjan Saberi. The aviator silhouette is revisited with a characterful yet flattering circular design, the frame corners nicely anchored by multidimensional crescent half-moon shapes. Special focus is placed on fit, such that the proportions are optimized for a greater range of face and head shapes.
A major component are the smoothly detachable side-shields which, while physically protecting against light in the peripherals, metaphorically fortifies the wearer, as if paralleling an imperfect yet somehow irreproachable medieval armor. Carved in a form reminiscent of contour-molded body armors, the shields present a highly distinctive profile when viewed from any angle. The shields also feature artful debossed grooves, traced with two slender cutouts in a nod to Saberi’s symbolic affinity for the number eleven. The unique blend of details subtly recalls ancient insect exoskeletons preserved in fossils, while simultaneously exuding a futuristic cyber-organic feel.
Composition: Pure + beta Titanium; natural oxidation; hand applied finish
Handmade in HONGKONG
SKU: RG1011BBS
