Boston – Handcrafted Buffalo Horn Frame

Description

Boston distils vintage round-eye charm into a modern, lightweight silhouette. Hand-carved from ethically sourced buffalo horn, the frame is hypoallergenic, naturally warm against the skin and—when polished—develops a handsome patina. Because every plate of horn carries a unique grain, each Boston frame is literally one-of-a-kind. Moreover, our workshop can craft Boston in a spectrum of horn tones, from milk-white yak to charcoal Asian buffalo, ensuring the perfect match for your style.

Why Natural Horn Outperforms Acetate
Horn is light, strong and breathable. It adapts to body temperature, resists sweat and—given proper care—lasts decades while gaining a graceful patina. A recent peer-reviewed study confirms horn’s biochemical advantages over petroleum-based plastics (source).

Finish & Lens Options
Our artisans can polish Boston in shades ranging from deep ebony to toasted caramel. Clear prescription optics, gradient sun lenses or photochromic lenses all fit the precision-cut grooves. Stainless-steel spring hinges add strength and flexibility for daily wear.

Styling Notes
Rounded lenses and a slim keyhole bridge give Boston a smart, intellectual vibe that pairs as easily with tailoring as with casual denim.
