Orchid

Bonsai Series · Lotus Collection · $895

Life is beautiful, complicated, and full of unexpected turns. The Orchid is that idea, made wearable.

Sterling silver root branches wrap around the temples and frame corners. Sterling silver lotus flowers at each temple tip. Limited edition, handcrafted in Japan.

The Inspiration

The Orchid is Gazal’s most personal frame. It began with a question she’d been sitting with for years: how do you design something that represents the grandness of life — its beauty, its complexity, all the twists and turns that shape who you become?

The answer came through nature. Branches that grow outward, split, curve back, and find new paths. Roots that hold everything together even when you can’t see them. The Orchid’s sterling silver branch motifs aren’t decoration — they’re a map of everything life throws at you and how you grow through it.

Being Bold

The Orchid is oversized by design. Gazal has always wrestled with the idea of being bold — stepping into the spotlight, being seen, taking up space. The Orchid is her answer to that discomfort: a frame that doesn’t apologize for its presence. It’s large, detailed, and impossible to ignore. And yet, despite its size, it’s engineered for all-day comfort. Every gram is accounted for. The weight distribution follows the same principles Gazal developed across her ergonomic titanium collections — nothing presses, nothing pinches, nothing shifts.

Grandness doesn’t have to mean heavy. That’s the point.

Colors from the World Around Us

Each Orchid colorway is drawn from something real — not a Pantone chart, not a trend forecast. Pink flowers. Aquamarine water. Red roses. The deep greens of a forest canopy. Every color Gazal chose came from stepping outside and paying attention.

Sterling Silver Craftsmanship

The root branches on the Orchid are genuine sterling silver — not plated, not painted. Each branch is individually shaped and set by hand, wrapping around the temple and continuing onto the frame front corners. No two frames are exactly identical.

At each temple tip sits a sterling silver lotus flower, the signature of the Lotus Collection. The silver ages naturally over time, developing a patina that makes each pair uniquely yours.

The Bonsai Series

The Orchid belongs to the Bonsai Series within the Lotus Collection — a limited release where each frame explores growth, nature, and the art of patience. Like a bonsai tree, these frames are shaped slowly and deliberately. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is mass-produced. Each piece is handcrafted in Japan with the care that the name demands.
