High quality stitching process variety of colors cat eye women's acetate sunglasses





A cat eye women’s acetate sunglass with a stitched rim detail, offered in a variety of colours for OEM programmes and boutique ranges.
Overview
This is a cat eye women’s acetate sunglass, cut with a lifted outer corner and finished with a stitching process around the rim. The stitching is a decorative thread set into a groove rather than a surface applique, so it follows the rim line and does not lift at the corner where a hand-held pair wears first.
The shape is the commercial part: a cat eye reads as a fashion sunglass on a display wall, and the stitching gives the front a handmade reference that a plain polished acetate cannot carry. A variety of colours is offered because the frame is cut from sheet, so a colourway is a material order rather than a moulding run.

This cat eye women's acetate sunglass is finished with a stitching process around the rim and offered in a variety of colors; the variety of colors cat eye line shares one lens, and the stitching process is what separates these acetate sunglasses from a plain polished front.
Key Features
Cat Eye Geometry
The outer corner lifts and the brow runs slightly flat, which is the proportion that reads as cat eye rather than merely angular. The rim is kept thick at the corner so the lift holds its shape after polishing and does not soften into a round eye.
Stitching Process
The thread sits in a cut groove around the rim, so it follows the shape and stays flush instead of standing proud. Each groove is cut before polishing and the thread is set by hand, which is why the detail is checked along its full length before the lens goes in.
Acetate Sheet Colour
Cutting from sheet gives a deeper colour than a thin moulding and lets a variety of colours be offered from one front tool. Frames from the same batch match across front and temple, which is where a colour difference is most visible.
OEM Colour and Branding
A variety of colours is available per order, with the lens and the logo specified alongside. Because the front is cut rather than moulded, a new colour is a material decision confirmed at quotation stage rather than a new tool.

OEM & ODM Customization
The stitching is a hand operation, so it is the first thing fixed in an OEM conversation: thread colour, groove depth and the run of the stitch around the corner. Colour and lens follow, and the packing is designed so the front is protected in transit rather than resting against a hard case.
- Thread colour and groove depth set from a physical sample, with the stitch run checked around the corner.
- Acetate colour selected from the sheet range, with front and temple cut from the same batch.
- Lens tint confirmed at quotation stage, including a gradient or a solid tint for the target market.
- Case, pouch and printed card designed to the buyer’s brief, with the front protected by a sleeve in transit.
- OEM orders are confirmed point by point before production: artwork, colour, lens power, packing and carton marks are signed off in writing, so nothing is left to assumption once the line starts.
- 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.
Manufacturing & Quality Control
A stitched rim is checked along its full length, because a single lifted thread is visible at arm’s length. The groove is inspected for depth before stitching, the front is checked for symmetry after polishing, and the lens is checked for retention before packing.
1. Incoming Material Inspection
Acetate sheet or PC pellets, polarised lens wafers and metal hinges are checked on arrival for colour batch, thickness and optical defects. Lens wafers are read for polarisation axis and tint density, and any lot with ripple, haze or axis drift is quarantined before mounting.
2. Frame Forming and Lens Mounting
Fronts are cut or moulded, tumbled and polished, then the lens groove is machined so the polarised lens seats without stress that would show as a rainbow patch. Hinges are riveted or screwed at a controlled depth, and the frame is aligned so the temples fold flat and the front sits level.
3. Coating and Optical Inspection
Lenses are checked for UV blocking, tint evenness and polarisation efficiency on the bench, and the mirror or gradient coating is inspected under a lamp for gaps and edge coverage. Frames are checked for colour match against the master plaque, and the assembled pair is gauged for face form and lens retention.
4. Packing and Outgoing Sampling
Each pair is wiped, bagged and packed with the case, cloth and card agreed for the order. The outgoing AQL sample is checked for hinge tension, lens retention, logo position and label accuracy, and the carton is verified for barcode, quantity and shipping marks before it is sealed.

FAQ
What is the MOQ?
The minimum is confirmed at quotation stage because the stitching is a hand operation and the colour is a sheet order. A single colourway is the simplest first order.
Is the stitching real thread?
Yes, a thread is set into a cut groove around the rim rather than printed on the surface. The groove is cut before polishing, and the stitch run is checked along its length before the lens is mounted.
Can I choose the thread colour?
Yes. Thread colour is selected from the available range or matched to a submitted sample, and the choice is confirmed at quotation stage with a physical front.
