Portrait - Yoshi - Black Gold

$507.00

Origami-Inspired Cat-Eye Geometry in Milled Acetate

The Yoshi is defined by its deep cuts and sharp angles, mimicking the precision of paper folding. In the Black Gold colorway, the frame utilizes a high-contrast palette of solid black acetate paired with luminous gold-toned metallic accents, creating a look that is both authoritative and elegantly artistic.

Technical Craftsmanship & Material Details

  • Sculptural Acetate Construction: Handcrafted in Italy from premium cellulose acetate. The "origami" effect is achieved through expert milling that creates facets and sharp edges on the frame front, catching the light like a folded sculpture.

  • Hybrid Structural Reinforcement: The frame integrates premium stainless steel and titanium inserts. This "endo-skeletal" approach ensures the bold acetate front remains perfectly aligned while providing the lightweight strength necessary for daily wear.

  • Hand-Finished Luster: Each frame undergoes a meticulous preparation process where the sharp edges are precisely hand-polished. This ensures the geometric lines remain "crisp" but are tactilely smooth against the skin.

  • Eco-Sustainable Manufacturing: True to Portrait's DNA, the Yoshi is produced using environmentally friendly methods, combining artisanal hand-work with sustainable production technology in Italy.

Fit & Ergonomics

  • Extended Cat-Eye Lift: The frame features an upward architectural tilt designed to provide a natural "lifting" effect to the face. The sharp corners at the temples add a modern, aggressive touch to the otherwise classic silhouette.

  • Balanced Weight Distribution: Despite its substantial visual volume, the use of titanium components helps shift the center of gravity. This prevents the frame from feeling front-heavy, ensuring it stays secure on the nose without sliding.

  • Individuality-Focused Design: The Yoshi is part of a series designed to challenge traditional design elements. It is logo-free on the exterior, allowing the unique silhouette and material quality to serve as the brand's primary signature.

Technical Dimensions

  • Model: YOSHI (Color: Black Gold - C.01)

  • Lens Width: 54mm

  • Bridge Width: 18mm

  • Temple Length: 145mm

  • Total Frame Width: 140mm

  • Shape: Geometric Cat-Eye

  • Manufacturing: Entirely Handmade in Italy

Expert Note

Expert Note: The Yoshi is a "power frame" best suited for medium to wide face shapes. While its 54mm lens width is generous, the sharp 18mm bridge ensures it maintains a snug fit. This model is particularly effective for softening round or oval faces, as its aggressive origami-inspired angles provide a strong, structured counterpoint to curved facial features.
