Kame ManNen – 3005

The KameManNen 3005 is a panto shape with subtle edges added, soft overall but with a firm line. A cut on the back of the rim catches the light and adds depth, and the natural line of the temples keeps the look gentle.

Sizes: 50 mm lens width, 18 mm bridge, 141 mm temples.

About KameManNen: the company started in 1917 in Fukui, Japan, as a metal-plating workshop and, after the Second World War, became an eyewear maker in Sabae, the town at the heart of Japanese frame making. It is often called Japan’s oldest eyewear brand, and in 1981 it was the first in the world to make eyeglass frames from titanium. Frame colors come from metal plating and ion plating, a slow process chosen because the finish lasts.
