TVR Series 4, Grey Crystal / Clear Prescription Lens (Zeiss)
About The .. Originally a celebrated style in French eyewear during the 1940s, the Arnel shape gained popularity in America, becoming an iconic design in the 1950s
The thick body, square-shaped upper part of the eye frame, and special bridge with diamond-cut angled shape contribute to the noteworthy design. Special attention is given to Japanese hand-carving artistry on the metal core, known as the 'Tebori' technique or Japanese engraving by hand. The French influence on the Arnel is reimagined with vintage-like texture, incorporating raised corners on the front, a mix of straight and curved lines, wide library temples (boat paddle), and flared tips. The frame is supported by seven-barrel hinges plated in 14k gold for a luxurious finish. Crafted entirely by hand in 8mm Japanese Zylonite material for the fronts and 6mm temples, the model prioritizes comfort and fitting. Launched in June 2022, the TVR® SERIES 4 French Classic is a reinterpretation of the Classic Arnel, a best-selling American eyewear style from the 1950s, with a French twist. The metal core features 17th Century Baroque-style engraving for added ornamentation. The Tebori technique adds a unique and personal touch, ensuring each eyepiece is intricately detailed with generational elements, making it truly one-of-a-kind. Signature American-inspired double diamond 'W' rivets adorn the front, while temple rivets, patented based on the 1950s double diamond design, add a three-dimensional effect with pure 14k gold plating. The revival celebrates the Classic French Saddle Bridge on the Arnel front, reflecting the historical period of flamboyance and opulence. The SERIES 4 exemplifies the 'East meets West' concept, blending Japanese handcrafted artisanal qualities with European design philosophies. The diamond edge finishing is meticulously done by a master craftsman with over six decades of experience in eyewear making. Originally a celebrated style in French eyewear during the 1940s, the Arnel shape gained popularity in America, becoming an iconic design in the 1950s.
