Windsor glasses showcase a timeless round frame with a delicate saddle bridge, a design created long before modern adjustable nose pads. Early versions were primarily constructed with metal frames, many accented with tortoise shell or celluloid overlays on the eye wires for subtle texture and character.
These vintage frames are distinguished by their signature “riding bow” or cable temples. The gently curved arms wrap fully around the ears for a secure, non-slip fit, making them especially stable and practical for active wear.
