Designer Silhouette Glasses

Exceptional aesthetic often arises from the combination of two seemingly opposing poles. Silhouette eyewear has always succeeded in mastering this art: Achieving unparalleled lightness through inner strength. To remain true to oneself and to constantly set new impulses. To create timeless design that also meets the spirit of the age

Based in Austria, they have a long tradition of producing classic and innovative eyewear that goes right back to 1964. Our production philosophy – with its craftsmanship and emphasis on manual work – is akin to that of a cottage industry.

The result is unique eyewear that will delight and surprise you in terms of its innovation. Excellent design and high-quality materials create a clarity of design that expresses the individuality of the people who wear them.

Materials and Craftsmanship

Silhouette pioneered the world’s first screwless, hingeless, rimless titanium frame in 1999 — the Titan Minimal Art, which weighs as little as 1.8 grams. All frames are made in Austria, with roughly 80% of production still done by hand, using titanium and the brand’s own patented SPX+ plastic.

Who Silhouette Suits

The rimless, ultra-lightweight construction is particularly well suited to anyone with delicate facial features, since a full-rim frame can quickly look and feel too heavy by comparison. It also suits pressure-sensitive wearers who find standard frames uncomfortable behind the ears or on the nose bridge — with frames this light, there’s very little to feel at all.

Lens Compatibility

Silhouette’s rimless designs work well with single vision, varifocal and photochromic lenses, though the lens edge itself is more visible than on a full-rim frame, so our team will talk through lens shape and finish options specific to your chosen style during fitting.
