Blackfin Adds New Colors to Pleasant Bay Style
 As a preview to Silmo, Blackfin has added new colorways to the Pleasant Bay BF797 style as the autumn collection continues to display the essence of the Blackfin brand. The Pleasant Bay BF797 model is the first to have the color of the front applied at an angle of 45°. The rigorously angular design of the top rim, offset by the softer curves of the lower part and the large lenses, create an up-to-the-minute look that sets the trend. The large proportions of the highly polished eye rims are emphasized by the original colors – sulfur yellow or cloud white with details in polished titanium, or opaque black with details in seagull wing grey. Blackfin eyewear is entirely conceived, designed and produced in Italy by Blackfin.
