Stab Loves: Electric’s The Bunsen

Remember in high school science when you’d burn anything you could get your hands on with your class bunsen burner? Electric’s new shades, the Bunsens, have nothing to do with fire, but they sure are hot. A more squared-off wayfarer style, with some gold detail on the stone grey edition, Stab finds these perfect for the blindingly-crisp autumn sun (which Oz is being treated to right now). Thick frames are our jam and these particular ones are handmade acetate with an injected wire core. Size-wise, the Bunsens are category three, which means they’re 51mm. They’re also tricked out with everything you’d expect, like stainless steel hinge, UV-proof CR39 lens and a handmade acetate frame. What else y’need? Get ’em over here.
