Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get prescription lenses in Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames?

Yes, all Etnia Barcelona Vintage eyeglasses and sunglasses can be fitted with prescription lenses. This includes single vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses. The frames are designed with sufficient depth and width to accommodate most prescription ranges. For sunglasses, you can add prescription lenses with your choice of tint, polarization, or photochromic (transition) options. Our optical team can help determine the best lens options for your specific frame and prescription needs.

What materials are used in Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames?

Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames are primarily constructed from premium acetate, a plant-based material derived from cotton and wood pulp that offers superior durability, comfort, and color depth compared to standard plastics. The brand sources high-quality acetate from Italian suppliers, which allows for the rich, layered color combinations the collection is known for. The acetate is hand-polished and features reinforced metal hinges for long-lasting wear. Some styles may incorporate metal accents or temple details.

How do I know which Etnia Barcelona Vintage frame size is right for me?

Each Etnia Barcelona Vintage frame includes three measurements (in millimeters): lens width, bridge width, and temple length. These are typically printed on the inside of the temple arm. For reference, small frames are usually 48-52mm lens width, medium frames 52-56mm, and large frames 56mm and above. The frame product pages on Designer Optics list these measurements. If you have a current pair of glasses that fit well, compare those measurements to find your best match. Our customer service team can also provide guidance based on your face measurements and preferences.

Are Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames unisex?

Most Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames are designed with a unisex aesthetic, though some styles may lean slightly more masculine or feminine based on size and shape. The brand's design philosophy emphasizes personal expression over traditional gender categories. Styles like the CONNERY and KIRK tend to feature bolder, more angular designs, while frames like the PEARL DISTRICT series may have softer curves. Ultimately, the best frame is the one that fits your face shape and matches your personal style, regardless of how it's marketed.

How should I care for my Etnia Barcelona Vintage acetate frames?

To maintain your Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames, clean them daily with lukewarm water and a mild soap or lens cleaner, then dry with a microfiber cloth. Avoid hot water, which can damage acetate, and harsh chemicals like ammonia or bleach. Store your frames in a protective case when not in use, and avoid leaving them in hot environments like car dashboards, as extreme heat can warp acetate. The natural oils in acetate may occasionally cause slight color changes over time, which is normal and adds to the vintage character. Periodic professional adjustments at an optical shop will keep the fit optimal.

Are Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames authentic, and do they come with a warranty?

All Etnia Barcelona Vintage frames sold through Designer Optics are 100% authentic and sourced directly from authorized distributors. Each frame comes with original branded packaging and includes a manufacturer's warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship (typically one to two years, depending on the specific model). The warranty does not cover damage from accidents, improper care, or normal wear and tear. Designer Optics also offers a satisfaction guarantee and can assist with warranty claims or adjustments as needed.

Etnia Barcelona Vintage

The Etnia Barcelona Vintage collection pays homage to the brand's Barcelona roots through frames that blend mid-century design inspiration with contemporary construction. Each frame is named after iconic neighborhoods, coastal towns, and cultural figures—from Barcelona's Brera district to Hollywood legends like Connery and Kirk. The range includes optical eyeglasses and sunglasses in a variety of shapes: round frames, square profiles, cat-eye designs, and aviator styles.

The collection features premium acetate sourced from Italian suppliers, with many styles showcasing layered construction that reveals different hues depending on angle and light. Reinforced metal hinges and carefully polished edges demonstrate the attention to detail in each frame. The carefully curated color palettes—often featuring unexpected combinations and translucent finishes—set these frames apart from conventional eyewear. All frames are designed to accommodate prescription lenses, making them as functional as they are stylish.
