1. Introduction ~Handmade Glasses/Sunglasses~
Our eyeglasses and sunglasses are handmade in Japan and partner factories in China. Metronome is often described as "unique" and "distinct and stylish." The secret lies in our design skills and our ability to realize them.
In 2021, we opened not only a domestic online store, but also an online store for overseas customers.
Additionally, in September 2021, we exhibited at SILMO PARIS 2021, one of the world's leading and largest eyeglasses and sunglasses exhibitions. Discerning buyers from around the world, mainly from Europe, came to the event and highly praised our brand's stylish eyeglasses! (Thanks to this, our overseas distributors are steadily increasing!) It was an extremely valuable experience to exhibit at an exhibition that brings together the trends of 2021 and 2022.
(The most difficult and stylishly hand-assembled product is the Blasphemy [METRONOME] below.)
2. Uniquely designed glasses/sunglasses
( Since Yesterday [METRONOME])
This SInce Yesterday was designed by the designer in a single stroke and is the first product released in this season's collection. The lenses are photochromic and feature cable temples (hand-wrapped rope).

Speaking of cable temples, they are also used in the frames of our shop's SummerRain and Trad flip-up lens products. They are characterized by their ability to fit snugly around the ear and stay firmly in place. In Japan, straight temples are more popular, but rope-wrapped temples are apparently also popular overseas.
( Summer Rain [METRONOME 2021] )
From standard shapes to unique designs, we have a wide variety of colors available. The classic designs are suitable for any occasion, and we also carry a variety of "thicker frames," which are said to be a trend in 2021.
We have a wide range of prices depending on the material, making it easy to choose according to your budget. In addition to demo lenses, we also have a variety of lenses to choose from, including photochromic lenses, colored sunglasses lenses, and blue light blocking lenses, so you can choose according to your needs.
3. Frame surface treatment
( Distortion melancholia [METRONOME])
The surface is treated with the brand's unique "fossil processing" technique, in which artisans hand-carve each acetate frame to create a photographic texture. The unique feature is that no two frames have the same pattern.
( Adjustment disorder [METRONOME] )
This is also an Adjustment disorder with a fossil-like surface. It has a Boston-style design and is also carved out piece by piece.

Metronome's original brand of glasses and sunglasses are handmade with the utmost attention to design, processing, usability, and functionality.
The eyeglasses/sunglasses sold in our shop are generally designed with frames that allow for interchangeable lenses (note that wire glasses, which are decorative items, are not originally designed to accommodate lenses). We would be happy to have you bring them to one of our authorized dealers or consult your local eyeglass store about lens replacement.
NEW! " Lens Replacement Service " launched in January 2022!
