Trendy Vintage Business Style Metal Reading Glasses for Men Women





A vintage business style metal reader in 46-21-135 with an anti blue light lens, offered at 1200 pcs in one colour for men and women who want a slim, formal reader.
Overview
This is a metal reading frame in 46-21-135, a compact size that sits high on the nose and leaves the brow clear, which is why it reads as a formal reader rather than a fashion accessory. The front is a thin metal rim with a defined brow line, and the demi colour on the temple gives the frame a vintage business look without the weight of a full acetate front.
The lens is an anti blue light reading lens, so the pair is used at a desk as well as with a book. A compact eye means the lens is small enough to keep the weight down, and the metal front holds the lens without the rim spreading, which is the usual failure on a slim reader that is folded and unfolded many times a day.
The programme is run by Wenzhou Readsun Optical Co., Ltd., a professional eyewear supplier that designs and produces high-end optical frames in TR90, acetate and metal. The company opened its Alibaba store in 2007 for wholesale business and has since won recognition from millions of customers worldwide, with more than 1,000 different models held in stock and new styles added every week.
A vintage business style metal reader in 46-21-135, offered as metal reading glasses with an anti blue light lens; the business style metal front is shared across the reading glasses for men and the women’s fit, so one order supplies glasses for men women displays from a single shape.
Key Features
Vintage Business Front
The brow line is straight and the rim is thin, which is the geometry that reads as vintage business rather than retro fashion. It suits a wearer who wants a reader that looks like a pair of spectacles, and it sits well under a shirt collar or a jacket lapel.
Compact 46-21-135 Fit
A 46 mm eye keeps the lens small and the frame light, and the 135 mm temple suits a narrower head. The size is the reason the pair can be worn high on the nose for close reading without the bottom rim cutting into the cheek.
Anti Blue Light Reader Lens
The lens carries a blue light filter over the reading power, so a wearer can move from paper to a screen without changing pairs. Lenses are read on a meter for power and centration, and the filter is checked for colour cast on a white card.
One Colour at 1200 pcs
The minimum is 1200 pcs in one colour, which keeps the plating batch consistent and the price low. Demi is the standard finish, and a second colour is a plating decision confirmed at quotation stage rather than a change to the front.

OEM & ODM Customization
The frame is a volume reader, so customisation is kept simple: one colour, one logo position, one case. That simplicity is deliberate, because a plating batch that is split across colours is harder to keep consistent and slower to produce than a single-finish run at 1200 pcs.
- One colour per run, demi as standard, with a second plating colour quoted separately at quotation stage.
- Logo on the temple or the demo lens, positioned so it does not break the brow line.
- Power assortment agreed per carton so a pharmacy can hold a spread across the minimum.
- Case and printed card specified with the frame, with the barcode placed on the card rather than the case.
- Your inquiry is answered within 12 hours by a trained sales engineer who can talk through material, tooling and packing online rather than forwarding a price list.
- Every shipment is guaranteed: if a problem appears within the warranty period, other than damage to vulnerable parts or man-made damage, replacement spare parts are sent for fitting.
- The engineering team designs personalised frames and builds the packaging solution around your listing, with dielines and colour proofs reviewed before printing.
Manufacturing & Quality Control
A slim metal reader is judged on rim symmetry, hinge tension and plating coverage at the temple, so all three are checked on every frame. The front is gauged after forming, the hinge is cycled on a jig, and the demi finish is compared with the master plaque under daylight before packing.
1. Incoming Material Inspection
Stainless steel strip, monel wire, nose pads and demo lenses are inspected against the approved sample on arrival, with strip thickness, wire temper and pad hardness recorded per lot. Plating chemicals are checked against the approved list, and any lot that fails the bend test is rejected before it reaches the press.
2. Stamping, Forming and Assembly
Fronts are stamped, trimmed and tumbled, then formed to the frame curve so the lens groove stays concentric. Bridges are welded or screwed, end pieces are aligned to the temple angle, and hinges are riveted at a controlled torque; every frame is opened and closed on the jig and checked for a flush fold.
3. Plating and Optical Inspection
Frames are polished, degreased and plated in nickel-free or IP finishes, then baked and checked for adhesion, colour and coverage on the inner rim. Demo lenses are seated, the frame is gauged for bridge width, temple length and face form, and the finished surface is inspected under a lamp for pits and scratches.
4. Packing and Outgoing Sampling
Frames are wiped, bagged and packed with the case, cloth and card agreed for the order. The AQL sample is drawn from finished cartons and checked for hinge tension, plating colour and laser or printed logo position, and the carton is verified for barcode, quantity and shipping marks before sealing.

FAQ
What is the MOQ?
1200 pcs in one colour. The single-colour minimum is what keeps the plating batch consistent, and a second colour is quoted separately at quotation stage.
Can the power range be mixed in one order?
Yes. Powers are assorted per carton, so the order can carry a spread for a retail display. The assortment is fixed at order stage and printed on the carton mark.
How long does a logo sample take?
A stock frame is available for fit review, and a logo sample is made after artwork approval. The sampling schedule is confirmed at quotation stage rather than quoted from a generic calendar.
