Eva Masaki Chiyo Sunglasses Dragon

Translucent dark olive with soft brown lens. A strong frame invoking the lunar calendar dragon, a sign that draws energy from all twelve animals; the supreme being. A nod to Eva Masaki's own little dragon, LiLi, born in the Year of the Dragon (2024).

WHY WE LOVE IT

A modern aviator frame rendered fully in Italian acetate named after Eva Masaki’s mother Chiyo, who came of age as a Japanese woman living in America in the 1960s and 70s. A celebration of the name Chiyo (ch-ee-yo), meaning “one thousand generations” in Japanese, the frames are an enduring style with an updated approach. Sensibly oversized and narrow through the temples, the hexagonal frame is designed to fit a wide range of face shapes. Handmade in Northern Italy from cellulose acetate by Mazzucchelli.
