Gunmetal Glasses
Gunmetal glasses frames are the choice for anyone who wants the clean lines of a metal frame with a darker, more assertive finish than standard silver. Gunmetal is a deep blue-grey metallic tone — heavier and more industrial in character than silver, but without the warmth of gold or bronze. Gunmetal rectangular glasses are a particularly popular choice for men, where the strong metallic finish adds authority and sharpness to a professional look. Slim gunmetal metal frames with spring hinges offer a lightweight, low-profile everyday option that works well with both formal and casual wear. Gunmetal prescription glasses suit most face shapes and skin tones, pairing naturally with cool, neutral and dark wardrobes.
