SPOKANE, Wash.—Davesh LLC has introduced the Blakened line of ophthalmic frames and sunwear. The Blakened collection is inspired by music and the lasting impression it leaves on our lives.

The collection consists of 15 unisex ophthalmic and sun styles, 48 SKUs, handcrafted by Japanese artisans to the highest standards, the company said. Constructed of hand-selected cellulose acetate and pure titanium, the frames feature a distinctive guitar pick logo with a block “B” intaglio. Additional styles will be introduced in coming months, including natural buffalo horn material.

Blakened sunwear features the proprietary Mirus lens, polarized hi-contrast lenses in radiant copper and real gray. According to the company, the lenses feature performance-tuned technology and are color enhancing, while filtering out damaging short wave blue and high-energy violet (HEV) wavelength light. The lenses are available in prescription single vision and digital progressive addition designs.

Each style comes with a collapsible padded hard case.
