About this frame
T HENRI ALTESSE sunglasses embody grand touring luxury through a refined architectural silhouette and exceptional handcrafted detailing. Inspired by the golden age of European coachbuilt automobiles, the frame features softly sculpted bevel transitions, aerodynamic contours, and an elevated browline that creates a poised, confident profile. Crafted from Japanese cellulose block acetate, the design is defined by 10mm hand-carved fronts and 7mm laminated, carved temples, complemented by custom titanium décor corewires featuring an Art Deco skyscraper motif. Gold antireflective Zeiss CR39 gradient sun lenses provide enhanced visual comfort, while the 7-barrel hinge, octagonal safety rivet system, and custom hinge plates ensure precision and durability. Finished with houndstooth no-slip grip laser engraving and individual serial numbering, the ALTESSE is produced in a microproduction of just 199 pieces, making it an exclusive expression of refined craftsmanship and enduring sophistication.
