Alba lifts the classic cat-eye into something quieter: a soft sweep at the corner, a slimmer rim, none of the costume drama. Hand-polished for two days until the acetate holds a deep gloss.
Cut from plant-based Mazzucchelli acetate and fitted with five-barrel hinges, so the arms close with the same clean click on day one and day one thousand.
