Peniche Bio Acetate Sunglass
The statement piece. Sculptural silhouette in plant-based bio acetate, polarized lenses, saturated orange or muted gray. Made for the moment you want the sunglass to be the note that anchors the outfit.
Bio acetate is a plant-derived alternative to petroleum acetate. Same clarity and hand feel, biodegradable at end of life. The saturated color reads deep because the material takes pigment differently than injected plastic. Every pair carries subtle color variation, which is part of the character.
Polarized UV400 lenses cut glare off water, glass, and hood. Wire spring hinges flex enough to sit comfortably through a long afternoon without loosening over time. The frame profile is designed to sit balanced on medium face shapes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is bio acetate?
Bio acetate is an acetate made from plant-derived material rather than petroleum. It has the same optical clarity and durability as traditional acetate, but breaks down naturally at end of life rather than persisting as plastic waste.
Are these sunglasses polarized?
Yes. All Peniche pairs have polarized UV400 lenses that block 100% of UVA and UVB rays.
Which colorway should I choose?
The saturated orange reads bolder and pairs well with cooler resort palettes. The muted gray is more versatile and works with almost any wardrobe.
Are they safe on the water?
Yes. The polarized lenses cut water glare. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure to preserve the frame finish.
How does bio acetate compare to wood?
Acetate holds saturated color better than wood, has slightly more weight in hand, and reads more polished. Wood is warmer to the touch and develops character with age. Both are premium materials.
