DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Tiffany 4226U Sunglasses combine modern rectangular architecture with the jewelry-inspired design Tiffany & Co. has perfected since 1837. These unisex frames feature a bold, structured silhouette in premium Italian acetate—lightweight, hypoallergenic, and built to last—paired with a distinctive faceted T detail at the temples that serves as both functional hinge and unmistakable brand signature.

Design & Construction

The 56mm rectangular lenses deliver confident, contemporary style that works across face shapes, particularly flattering on oval, round, and heart-shaped faces. The full-rim acetate construction ensures durability and excellent stability for prescription lens installation, while the 17mm bridge and 140mm temples provide a comfortable, secure fit for extended wear. Each frame is manufactured in Italy and features polished metal accents at the signature T hinge.

Available in six versatile colors: classic Black with grey mirror or solid dark grey lenses, rich Tortoise with gradient brown lenses, the signature Tiffany Blue acetate with light grey mirror silver lenses, crisp White with light grey mirror lenses, and Matte Black with solid grey lenses. All lenses are crafted from impact-resistant polycarbonate with 100% UVA and UVB protection and include anti-scratch coating for durability.

Fit Profile

The 4226U runs true to size with a medium-to-large fit. The 56mm lens width and 140mm temple length work well for average to wider face widths, while the 17mm bridge accommodates most nose profiles comfortably.

Prescription-Ready Luxury

These frames are fully prescription-ready and can accommodate single-vision, progressive, bifocal, and polarized prescription lenses. The full-rim design provides the structural support needed for a wide range of prescriptions, and our licensed opticians ensure accurate fitting for optimal vision correction. Whether you need them as sunglasses or everyday prescription eyewear, the 4226U adapts to your needs without compromising the luxury aesthetic.

The Tiffany 4226U balances the brand's jewelry-inspired elegance with practical, everyday wearability—a modern rectangle frame that stands out through refined details rather than excess.

Tiffany 4226U vs. Similar Tiffany Rectangle Frames

If you're drawn to the Tiffany 4226U's modern rectangle silhouette, you might also consider two other standout models in our collection: the Tiffany 4208U and the Tiffany 4121B. Here's how they compare.

Tiffany 4226U vs. Tiffany 4208U

The Tiffany 4208U shares the 4226U's clean rectangle shape and Italian acetate construction, but with a slightly smaller 54mm lens width compared to the 4226U's 56mm. Both frames are prescription-ready and feature signature Tiffany temple detailing, though the 4226U's faceted T hinge is more prominent and architectural. The 4208U starts at a slightly lower price ($282), making it a great option if you prefer a more compact fit. However, the 4226U offers more color variety and a bolder statement with its distinctive metal T accent.

Tiffany 4226U vs. Tiffany 4121B

For those who want more decorative flair, the Tiffany 4121B features sparkling crystal embellishments on the temples and gradient lenses for a glamorous, feminine look. Both models use premium Italian acetate and offer similar lens widths (55mm vs. 56mm), but the 4121B leans more feminine with its rectangle-butterfly hybrid shape, while the 4226U maintains a cleaner, unisex aesthetic. The 4121B is priced slightly higher ($313-$323) and offers the iconic Tiffany Blue with crystal accents—perfect if you want maximum luxury detailing.

Why Choose the Tiffany 4226U?

The 4226U strikes the ideal balance: bold enough to make a statement with its faceted T hinge, yet versatile enough for everyday wear across genders and styles. Its 56mm lens provides generous coverage, the unisex rectangle shape flatters a wide range of face shapes, and the six color options—including the signature Tiffany Blue—offer more variety than most comparable models. If you want a modern, architectural frame with unmistakable Tiffany luxury that works as both sunglasses and prescription eyewear, the 4226U delivers.
