Frame Description: 

Shimmering brightly through southern hemisphere nights, the Pyxis constellation was named for the mariners’ compasses that have guided brave seamen since the days of the most ancient of Greek myths. Inspired by the audaciousness of those fabled explorers, Akoni’s Pyxis also aims to push past known frontiers and discover new territories. The substantial design builds upon the familiar masculine silhouette of the classic wellington frames, which were a popular choice for postwar cinema’s greatest leading men . But, never one for opting for the expected routes, Akoni’s design team navigates new trails , adding a host of impressive new elements, including eye-catching visible titanium cores, expertly positioned to float within laminated Japanese acetate temples.  

  • Hinge: Custom titanium hinge plate with pressed lines and threaded tube screw system
  • Temples: Japanese acetate
  • Nose Pads: Molded
  • Wirecores: Custom shaped wirecore lamineted into acetate, with outlined oversize tip

    Lens: Dark Grey to Light Grey - Black Flash Mirror, 4 base, cat 3, High contrast CR-39 with three layer anti-reflective coating

    Anti-Reflective Coatings help improve both your vision and appearance of your eyeglasses by reducing the glare caused by artificial light.
    • Plastic (CR-39) is our most basic material. We recommend this lens for patients with low prescriptions due to the thickness and weight of CR-39. This lens has no shatter or scratch resistance. Anti-reflective coating is included.
