Some eyewear is beautiful straight out of the box. Others become extraordinary through customisation. This week’s Eyewear of the Week sits firmly in the latter category — a truly exceptional Cartier C Décor Wood in Platinum, transformed into a one-of-a-kind statement piece through meticulous, high-level lens craftsmanship.

Cartier’s C Décor Wood collection is already a standout. Defined by its rimless silhouette, platinum finish and signature “C” décor detailing, the frame balances refinement with quiet confidence. The addition of genuine wood temples introduces warmth and texture, creating a subtle contrast against the cool precious metal — unmistakably Cartier, unmistakably luxurious.

But this is where the story deepens.

Bespoke Lenses, Designed Without Compromise

For this pair, we moved far beyond standard lens options. The eyewear has been fitted with IOT lenses, chosen for their exceptional optical performance and flexibility when it comes to advanced customisation. This allowed us to craft a lens design that is not only visually striking, but also tailored precisely to how the wearer sees and lives.

The lenses feature a Pistachio Tint, delivering a soft, contemporary green tone that feels fresh, elegant and highly wearable. Layered on top is a Jade Flash Green finish, adding depth, vibrancy and a subtle reflective quality that shifts beautifully in different lighting conditions.

To elevate things further, the lenses are photochromic, meaning they intelligently darken in response to UV light. Indoors, they remain refined and understated; outdoors, they transform — enhancing comfort, protection and style without ever needing to switch glasses.

Where Craft Meets Art

What truly sets this pair apart is the lens finishing. We’ve created a custom lens shape, perfectly aligned to the minimalist Cartier frame, then enhanced it with faceted edges and precision diamond cuts. These details catch the light from every angle, creating a jewellery-like effect that mirrors Cartier’s heritage in fine craftsmanship.

This level of detailing is not cosmetic alone — it’s a celebration of what’s possible when eyewear is treated as an art form.

Eyewear for the Individual

This Cartier C Décor Wood is more than a pair of glasses. It’s a statement of individuality, expertise and intention — proof that true luxury lies in the details. From lens selection to tint layering, from edge work to finishing, every element has been carefully considered and expertly executed.

For those who believe eyewear should be as unique as the person wearing it, this is the gold standard.
