Who do round glasses suit? Face shape guide

When choosing new glasses, your face shape is one of the most important factors to consider. It's essentially about creating balance and harmony in the proportions of your face. Round reading glasses are particularly suitable for those with a square or prominent face shape. The soft curves of the round frame help to soften sharp jawlines and broad foreheads, creating a more harmonious and balanced look. If you have a very rectangular face, the round shapes can also help to break up the length and add width, creating beautiful symmetry.

It's important to note, however, that there are no hard and fast rules without exceptions. Many deliberately choose to break with conventions to create a unique and personal look. If, on the other hand, you naturally have a very round face, it can often be an advantage to look for square reading glasses instead, as these will add structure and definition rather than further emphasizing the round shapes. If you are unsure which category you belong to, you can read our in-depth guide to face shapes, where we review the different types and provide specific advice for the perfect glasses match.

The intellectual and creative look

In addition to the face shape itself, round glasses also have strong symbolic value. Historically, round glasses have been worn by architects, writers, and artists, which has given the shape a reputation for being both intellectual and creative. By choosing a round model, you add a touch of retro-elegance to your everyday life, which works equally well with a casual outfit as with a sharp suit or a feminine dress.

Choose between the Classic and Premium collections

At Hart & Holm, we aim to offer glasses for every need and budget. That's why our round reading glasses are divided into two primary collections: Classic and Premium. While the design is well-thought-out in both lines, there are differences in materials and technical features, which is reflected in the price.

Our Classic collection consists of glasses made from polycarbonate. This material is known for being incredibly lightweight and durable, ensuring high comfort even when you wear the glasses for many hours at a time. The Classic models are equipped with good spring hinges, which prevent the temples from uncomfortably tightening behind the ears. With prices starting from 249 DKK, this is the ideal choice for those who want stylish and functional glasses at a great price.

If you want glasses with even more depth and flexibility, you should take a closer look at our Premium collection. These glasses are hand-polished and made from acetate, which is an allergy-friendly material based on cotton and wood fibers. One of the major advantages of acetate is that the material can be heated and shaped. This means you can easily adjust your glasses so they fit perfectly on your head. Premium glasses also have fantastic color depth and shine, giving them an exclusive look. The price for Premium starts at 399 DKK, and here you truly get value for money in terms of material quality and finish.

How to find the right strength

Finding the correct strength is crucial for your visual comfort. Our round reading glasses are typically available in strengths from +1.00 to +3.00, covering the needs of most people with age-related farsightedness (presbyopia). The need for reading glasses often arises between the ages of 40 and 50, when the eye's lens naturally loses some of its elasticity, making it difficult to focus up close. If you find yourself holding books or your phone further away to see sharply, or if you get headaches when reading, it's time to consider reading glasses.

If you are unsure which strength to choose, we always recommend starting with the lowest strength where you can see sharply at a reading distance of approximately 35-40 cm. At Hart & Holm, we also offer a full strength guarantee. This means that if you order glasses with a strength that doesn't suit you, you can exchange them for a different strength free of charge. We want to ensure you have the best experience with your new glasses.

Retro look or modern minimalism?

Round glasses come in many forms, and with us, you'll find both very thin, delicate frames and more distinctive, robust frames. Models like 'Biella' and 'Torino' are popular classics that combine the best of retro charm with modern trends. If you prefer understated elegance, a color like 'Champagne' or 'Grey' might be the right choice, as their transparent tones create a light expression on the face. If, on the other hand, you want your glasses to serve as a clear accessory, you can opt for colors like 'Walnut', 'Moss', or the classic 'Turtle', which add warmth and character.

If you love the round look but also need sun protection when reading outdoors, remember that we also carry a large selection of round sunglasses with and without prescription. This allows you to maintain your preferred style, whether you're in the office or enjoying the sun on the terrace.

Mix and match your favorites

We know it can be hard to choose just one pair when there are so many beautiful designs. Perhaps you need a pair of reading glasses for the living room, a pair for the office, and a pair for your bag. That's why we've created attractive package deals, making it appealing to buy multiple pairs at once. You can freely mix and match across our entire range.

Buy 2 pairs from the Classic collection for only DKK 399, or choose 2 pairs from the Premium collection for only DKK 699.
