$510.00

The Thierry Lasry Delicacy is a refined, feminine cat-eye frame that balances Parisian elegance with the brand's signature architectural edge. Unlike the heavier silhouettes in the collection, the Delicacy features a slimmer profile while maintaining the deep, beveled sculpting that defines Thierry Lasry's luxury craftsmanship.

Thierry Lasry Delicacy: Technical Specifications

Headline: Architectural Cat-Eye with Sculpted Elegance

The Delicacy is a masterclass in proportion, offering a modern interpretation of the 1950s cat-eye. It utilizes a flat-front design paired with diamond-cut beveling along the browline to create a "lifting" effect on the face. It is engineered for those who want a statement frame that feels lightweight and sophisticated for all-day wear.

Technical Craftsmanship & Material Details

  • Mazzucchelli Cellulose Acetate: Entirely handcrafted in Italy using premium acetate. This high-grade material is chosen for its hypoallergenic properties and its ability to achieve a glass-like, high-luster finish through extensive hand-polishing.

  • 3D Beveled Rims: The frame front undergoes a precision-milling process to create beveled facets. This technique catches the light at multiple angles, adding a sculptural depth that differentiates it from standard flat-cut acetate frames.

  • Grade 5 Japanese Titanium Temples: To ensure a "delicate" feel, many colorways feature ultra-slim titanium temples. This provides a high strength-to-weight ratio and allows for a minimalist profile that contrasts beautifully with the acetate front.

  • Logo-less Aesthetic: In keeping with the brand's "discrete luxury" philosophy, the Delicacy features no external branding or logos. The identity is expressed solely through its unique silhouette and superior finishing.

Fit & Engineering

  • Reinforced 5-Barrel Hinges: Outfitted with high-tension hinges anchored directly into the acetate. This ensures the frame maintains its structural alignment and "snap" feel over years of use.

  • Anatomic Bridge Design: The 18mm–19mm bridge is hand-sculpted to provide a secure, comfortable fit that prevents the frame from sliding, even on narrower nasal profiles.

  • Premium CR-39 Optics: Typically fitted with gradient lenses that offer 100% UVA/UVB protection and are chemically hardened for scratch resistance.

Technical Dimensions

  • Model: Delicacy

  • Lens Width: 51mm

  • Bridge Width: 19mm

  • Temple Length: 140mm – 145mm

  • Frame Shape: Softened Cat-Eye / Butterfly

  • Manufacturing: Handcrafted in Italy

Expert Note: The Delicacy is highly recommended for Progressive Lenses. Its vertical depth provides a smooth corridor for multifocal prescriptions, while the beveled browline helps to draw attention upward, making it an excellent "lifting" frame for mature face shapes.
