Swarovski SK6053D

The SK6053D, front to temple tip

What you get is a square front with a flat brow and squared corners. There is a full rim all the way round each lens. The frame sits on a plain single bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. The feed gives the material as acetate. Acetate is the plant-based plastic that most designer frames are cut and polished from sheet; it holds deep colour and an optician can re-adjust it with heat. It has mixed metal and acetate temples. Colour 106211 is how Swarovski labels this version.

The numbers on the temple

The size is 55-17-145: lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. A 55 mm lens puts it in the large range for sunglasses, so check it against a pair you already own. Frames ship as the maker boxed them, without adjustment, and a local optician can fine-tune the fit.

Through the lens

Grey gradient lenses are fitted. Grey is the neutral tint: it dims light evenly without shifting colours. A gradient tint, darker at the top than at the bottom. Polarization and UV rating are not in the supplier's data for this pair, so neither is claimed here.

Same frame, other colourways

The SK6053D is also listed here as 103887 (Black with dark grey lenses) and 103413 (Milky Beige with brown gradient lenses). Shape and size are the same; only the finish changes.

From the supplier's shelf to your door

Every pair is brand-new and sold as authentic Swarovski, in the brand's packaging with the case and cloth where Swarovski includes them. Shipping inside the US is free; the supplier packs it on business days, normally within two, and emails tracking. Thirty days to return it, unworn and in its packaging, for a refund minus the label we send; anything defective, wrong or damaged in transit goes back at no cost within 7 days.
