Daniel RidingLARKE optics design and produce sophisticated, handcrafted eyewear. Each frame has been specially created to accommodate both optical and sun protection lenses.
All LARKE frames are entirely handmade in England in a modest family run workshop. Skilled artisans expertly combine age-old production methods with the finest modern technology. Crafted by hand from beginning to end each frame follows individual time consuming processes, culminating in a unique, durable frame of the foremost quality.
LARKE’s inaugural collection for AW13 is driven by a discerning appreciation of minimalist form and understated style. Hand carved from the finest blocks of rare and often end of line Italian acetate, each debut shape is assembled in a refined palette of tonal classics, midnight blue and safari inspired mottles and timeless horn, infused with matt finishes. Celebrating an unlaboured aesthetic, each frame exudes a raw unprocessed quality and enduring hand polished feel.
Through this distinctive blend of traditional processes, modern Zeiss sun lens technology and a fresh design aesthetic, LARKE optics have created a unique independent eyewear collection. For me information check out the official website here.
