Deconstructed Rectangular Geometry with Industrial Edge
The Banks is defined by its architectural rectangular shape and its asymmetric visual "breaks." In the Black Gradient colorway, the frame plays with light and transparency, using a solid black brow that fades into a clear base, emphasizing the "glitch" effect where the material appears to shift or cut away.
Technical Craftsmanship & Material Details
Handcrafted in Italy: Every Banks frame is meticulously produced by skilled artisans using a combination of traditional bench-work and advanced technology.
Premium Italian Acetate: The chassis is sculpted from top-quality cellulose acetate, allowing for the deep, rich colors and sharp, clean-cut edges necessary for the Glitch collection's signature look.
Structural Hybrid Core: Reinforced with premium stainless steel and titanium inserts, the Banks offers a robust and stable build. This internal "skeleton" provides longevity and prevents the geometric shape from warping over time.
Complex Surface Milling: The frame undergoes precision milling to create the "glitch" effect—deliberate steps and sharp facets on the frame's surface that create a unique 3D profile.
Logo-Free Aesthetic: The brand relies on its unmistakable design DNA rather than visible branding, keeping the exterior minimal and focused on the artistic silhouette.
Fit & Ergonomics
Versatile Rectangular Profile: Designed as a Regular fit (Total width approx. 140mm), the Banks is highly versatile. Its structured rectangular shape is particularly effective at adding definition to round, oval, and heart-shaped faces.
Lightweight Engineering: Despite its solid appearance, the use of titanium components ensures the frame remains surprisingly light, reducing pressure on the nose bridge for all-day comfort.
High-End Optical Compatibility: The sturdy full-rim construction is ideal for high-index lenses, as the acetate thickness naturally masks the edge of stronger prescriptions.

Expert Note
Expert Note: The Banks is one of the most intellectually stimulating frames in the Portrait collection. It is the perfect choice for someone who appreciates minimalist architecture but wants a frame that reveals more detail the closer you look. The Black Gradient version is especially popular because the fade at the bottom makes the "glitched" corners appear to float, enhancing the frame's avant-garde character.
