Salt. Burnet Sun

SALT. Burnet Sun is the French New Wave square as sun: same Japanese acetate chassis as Burnet optical, polarized CR-39 already in. SALT. writes François Truffaut’s subtle rebellion — it doesn’t follow the expected plot, it rewrites it. Balanced. Quietly confident. We sell it as a 50 mm acetate square sun with a 21 mm saddle, not a wrap and not Burnet optical.

Japanese acetate, functional rivet hinges, polarized optical-grade glass and CR-39, plus AR, hydrophobic, and oleophobic coatings. Designed in California. Handcrafted in Japan. $535 (Dried Herb/Crystal Laminate and Matte Antique Leaves/Crystal Laminate $560; Amber Sunrise and Beach Glass $515).

Who it’s for. Anyone who wants the Burnet square as sun, not Rx. 50 mm eye, 21 mm bridge, 148 mm temples, 39 mm depth. The 21 mm saddle is a comfortable acetate square — come in and check it. Not a wrap.

Shape. Square (sun). Manufacturer tags the shape as square and describes a deceptively classic sunglass in the spirit of the French new wave: familiar enough to recognize, different enough to change the conversation. Optical or sun; this listing is sun only.

Material. Japanese acetate; functional rivet hinges; Japanese componentry. Polarized optical-grade glass and CR-39 (colorways below list the CR-39 lens SALT. currently pairs). Coatings: AR, hydrophobic, oleophobic.

Origin. Designed in California. 100% made in Japan.
