Obsession

Lafont Paris

This very elegant frame masterfully mixes a retro spirit with haute technology. Stainless steel is superbly crafted in Obsession by Lafont Paris, and softened with gentle tri-colour aqua tones. A special handmade gradient coating adds to the beauty, style and sophistication of the design. Click on www.lafont.com for more information on their new collection. JG

Samurai

Theo Belgium

Wonderfully shiny acetate looks as if it just fell from an apple tree! Theo in Belgium loves to play with the colour palate, and this season the colours are linked to nature’s amazingly exuberant offerings. Samurai – part of the collaboration with Japanese designers Factory 900, is colourfully interpreted in springy apple gree in Japanese acetate. The design has a vintage air; a graceful curved top, and fun cut-out details on the sides. See more theo inspiration at www.theo.be JG
