These handmade frames embody the perfect blend of performance and avant-garde style.
From playful pops of colour to unconventional shapes, Sabine Be eyewear inspires wearers to “be Dandy,” “be Bossy,” “be Muse,” or even “be Lucky.” These frames are for those who celebrate individuality and aren’t afraid to stand out.
