Recommended model: 504
 
Founded in 2009 in New York, USA, the eyewear brand can be seen from the brand name of True Vintage Revival (hereinafter referred to as TVR), which is the purpose of TVR to reproduce classics.
 
The production source of TVR is Yaemon from a family of 100-year-old glasses craftsmen from Fukui Prefecture, Japan. Since the 50s, the Yaemon family has been making frames for many well-known American eyewear brands, insisting on hand-making small quantities of glasses, and passing on the rigorous art of glassmaking from generation to generation.
 
When it comes to the classic origin of "vintage glasses", it can be traced back to the 50s, when the trend of diamond-shaped studded glasses led by the popular American idol James Dean was called the "Arnel" old frame by later generations. From the 50s to the present day, most of the world's famous brands, including Oliver People and Moscot, have used Arnel styles as a model, and the preference of famous movie star Johny Deep has made it back into the fashion ranks.
 
TVR's 504 model is a perfect replica of "Arnel". Rather than recreating the exterior of the frame, the craftsmen have recreated the retro style from the inside out, from the tools of decades old to the old Datum Expression Size measurement and the Miter Cut technique, and even the small parts of the frame, such as the keyhole bridge, rivets, and seven butterfly pans, are all in accordance with the old-fashioned design.
 
In addition, the two models of 511 and 512 are also classic reproductions under the skillful hands of old craftsmen, with corresponding adjustments in the shape of rivets and nose bridge design, which can better adapt to the various needs of modern people, and consumers in China can buy from the Chinese official website, with a price of about three or four thousand yuan. Among them, 512 also launched a limited edition of celluloid for the Asian region, combining the traditional construction method of 18K gold inlaid rivets and temples metal into the stamen, which is more collectible.
 
For TVR, which focuses on black-framed frames, it is inevitable to "collide" with Oliver Peoples in terms of style, but when it comes to lightweight and curved design, OP is still superior. In addition, the lack of frame styles is also a major shortcoming of TVR, and black frame lovers may be satisfied with it, but the overall appeal of the product to the public is not great.
