Sheet frames are the old classic frames. They are tough, sturdy and can take almost any lens |
 |
These are more in fashion nowadays and have the elegant sleek look. Available in several colours and designs. Are lightweight (even more so if made of titanium), but may not be suitable for thick lenses. |
 |
These frames combine the best of plastic and metal |
 |
Nylon supra frames appear as though the rim is missing inferiorly. Actually a thin nylon string cunningly placed through a groove cut into the edge of the lens holds the lens up (like a hammock) against the upper visible rim. These frames are difficult to fit but their elegance makes it worth the effort. |

Three piece frames are totally rimless.The latest craze today but suitable only for those who are delicate in their handling of frames. |
