Glasses for a narrow face: the petit line
Glasses that are too wide slide down and take over your face. That is a pity, because the face wears the glasses, not the other way round. That is why we have the petit line, for narrow faces and for young adults.
What is the petit line?
The petit line is a series of titanium frames in smaller sizes. The same refined lines and the same colours as the rest of the collection, but in proportion to a narrower face.
How to read the size
Every frame comes with three numbers, for example 46-19-140. The first is the width of the lens, the second the width of the bridge and the third the length of the temple, all in millimetres. In the petit line the lens is 46 or 48 millimetres wide and the temple 135 or 140 millimetres long.
