SAMO© was the tag Jean-Michel Basquiat used in downtown Manhattan before the canvases — a mark that asserted presence with economy of means. The Samo Sun carries a similar logic in its design: a compact zyl frame at 49mm with beveled angles that give the geometry precision without aggression. The bevel is the operative detail — it turns the frame's edges into a feature rather than a termination, adding depth to a silhouette that could otherwise read as flat. In Black with Noir lenses, the frame is resolved: a single colour register, no interruption, no competing element. The zyl is solid and matte, the Noir lenses carry a dense, non-reflective darkness. This is a frame for someone who has already made the decision. Handmade in Japan.
