Round Adult Metal Gold Optical Frame with Custom Logo






A round metal front plated in a gold tone, aimed at women's ranges where a slim vintage shape carries the collection rather than a heavy acetate rim.
Overview
A round metal frame is the hardest shape to make well, because a thin rim has nowhere to hide a bad curve. This front is drawn from metal strip, formed on a round mandrel and welded at the bridge, then plated to a gold tone that is specified by colour rather than by name. The gold tone is approved on a plated chip, because the same plating reads warmer under shop lighting and cooler in daylight.
The round eye shape suits a narrow or angular face and reads as a deliberate style choice rather than a neutral default, which is why it holds its place in both optical and fashion ranges. Nose pads are adjustable and pad arm length is set so the rim sits clear of the lashes without pressing on the bridge. Because the rim is metal, the frame can be adjusted at the bridge and the end piece without heat, so a dispenser can correct a fit on the spot instead of sending the frame back.
Key Features
Formed Metal Front
The rim is formed from metal strip on a mandrel, welded at the bridge and polished before plating. A consistent curve around the eye is what separates a good round frame from one that looks pressed flat, and it is checked against a template at every stage.
Temple and Spring Hinge
The temple is metal with a moulded or silicone tip, joined through a hinge that is riveted and tested for return. A spring hinge protects the rim when the frame is pushed on one-handed, which matters on a thin metal front where leverage is high.
Plating and Colour Depth
Gold tone is controlled by plating thickness and a top coat rather than by dye, so the colour stays consistent between batches. Samples are compared against a plated chip, because gold reads differently under warm retail lighting and under daylight.
Logo and Nose Pad Fit
Logo can be laser marked on the temple, engraved on the inner arm or applied as a small plaque. Nose pads are adjustable, and pad arm length is set so the frame sits off the lashes without pressing on the nose bridge.
Product Showcase
Views show the OM980048 sample and, where noted, a sister model from the same range, so the hinge position and temple profile can be compared before a sample is ordered.

OEM & ODM Customization
A round adult metal front is formed on a mandrel and plated to a gold tone specified by colour rather than by name. The adult metal gold finish is approved on a plated chip, the metal gold optical rim is checked against a roundness template, and the gold optical frame is supplied as a frame with custom logo on the temple.
Metal projects are quoted on two variables that plastic frames do not have: plating and welding. Plating thickness decides both the colour and the wear life, and the weld at the bridge decides whether the frame stays symmetrical after adjustment. We confirm both on the sample, then lock the specification for the run so a reorder does not arrive a shade darker or a millimetre wider.
- Shape: round, oval and pantos fronts are formed on different mandrels, so a new eye shape is a tooling item rather than a colour change.
- Plating: gold, rose gold, silver and gunmetal tones are quoted by plating thickness, with the colour approved on a plated chip.
- Temple: metal, acetate or combined temples can be fitted to the same front, which lets one shape serve several price points.
- Logo: laser marking gives a fine line on plated metal, while engraving gives a deeper mark that survives polishing.
- Packaging: hard case, pouch and printed sleeve can be specified, with the case sized to protect a thin rim in transit.
- Compliance: CE and FDA documentation is issued per model, including the plating specification and the lens type shipped.

Manufacturing & Quality Control
Production is organised around four checkpoints, and a frame cannot move to the next stage until the previous one is signed off. The process below is the same for a sample order and for a repeat run.
1. Strip and Plating Inspection
Metal strip is checked for thickness and surface condition, and plating chemicals are tested for concentration before the bath is used. A plated coupon is compared with the approved colour chip at the start of every batch.
2. Forming and Welding
Rims are formed on mandrels and checked against a template for roundness, then welded at the bridge. Weld strength is tested by flexing the front, and any frame that moves at the joint is rejected.
3. Polishing and Assembly
Frames are polished before and after plating, then assembled with hinges, temples and nose pads. Temple alignment and bridge width are measured on a flat plate, and the frame is checked for level.
4. Packing and Final Audit
Each frame is wiped with a soft cloth, checked for plating defects and packed with pads protected. Cartons are sampled for colour match, logo position and hinge feel before release.
Inspection records are kept against the model number, so a question raised months after shipment can be traced back to the batch, the operator and the material lot. The full procedure is described under quality control.
Applications
- Optical boutiques selling a fashion-led round shape
- Women's fashion eyewear ranges with a vintage reference
- Distributors adding a metal tier above plastic frames
- Online stores selling by face shape
- Corporate and gift programmes needing a slim metal frame
- Duty-free counters with a light, packable frame
The round metal shape is catalogued under custom women optical frame, and buyers who want the same look in sunwear can source it from custom women sunglasses.
FAQ
What is the MOQ for a plating colour change?
MOQ is 1200 pieces. A plating colour change inside that quantity is normal production, but the colour must be approved on a plated chip rather than on a screen, since gold tones shift under different lighting.
Can the nose pads be changed?
Yes. Pad arms and pads are separate components, so silicone, acetate or adjustable pads can be specified. Pad arm length is set so the frame sits clear of the lashes.
How is the frame kept symmetrical after adjustment?
The bridge weld is tested before plating and the frame is checked on a flat plate after assembly. A dispenser can then adjust the end pieces without heat, and the frame returns to level.
