Warby Parker made a name for itself through at-home eye prescription renewals and home-delivery of trial eye frames, but the brand also constantly collaborates with artists, small designers and other brands to add to its growing range of eyewear options. Now, Warby Parker has added a new collection to its lineup.

The new Circa Collection is inspired by traditional eyewear blinders, initially seen on travelers and adventures in the 19th century. The collection juxtaposes sleek metal elements into wireframes reminiscent of fashion trends in the past, teamed with modern details. It took the brand four years to develop the handcrafted acetate rims and delicate, archival-inspired debossing along the eye wires of the new frames.

The capsule features three new mixed-material silhouettes: Dante (a rectangular option), Nestor (a bookish option) and Earle (an aviator-shaped option). They come in sun and optical frames and are available in colored crystals such as inlet crystal, cacao crystal, nori crystal and cognac tortoise.

Recently, Warby Parker teamed up with artist Geoff McFetridge for a second capsule collection featuring two sunglasses silhouettes (coming in four colorways) and donated proceeds from the collab to urban design non-profit LA-Más. This L.A. group helps strengthen underserved communities through policy and architecture.

Eyewear pieces in the new Circa Collection start at $195 and are available to shop on the Warby Parker website now.
