Why Choose Marcolin
Marcolin’s design language is restrained and useful: crisp lines, confident proportions, and finishes that wear well. The result is eyeglasses that feel considered on the nose and easy to pair with everyday wardrobes. If you’re comparing silhouettes, browse our everyday eyeglasses to gauge fit and size ranges side by side.
Fit & Sizing Tips
Check the size numbers stamped inside the temple (for example, 50-18-140 = lens width - bridge - temple). A snug-but-comfortable bridge keeps frames stable; adjustable pads or a keyhole bridge can help if you have a narrower or higher bridge. Use product “Frame Specifications” to compare measurements before you decide.
Materials & Hinges
Acetate delivers a warm touch and rich colors; metal offers a lighter, slimmer profile with adjustable nose pads. Spring hinges add flex for day-long comfort, while standard hinges provide a firmer, traditional feel. Choose what suits your wearing style and the level of adjustability you prefer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these Marcolin eyeglasses authentic?
Yes. ModaFrames is an authorized retailer of Marcolin. We sell genuine frames only and never list counterfeits. If you need help choosing, use the filters on this page to narrow by material, size, or hinge type, or reach out to our support team for quick guidance.
How do I pick the right size?
Match your current pair’s numbers if possible. The format 50-18-140 equals lens width, bridge, and temple length in millimeters. Aim for a bridge that rests comfortably without pinching; if you’re between sizes, a model with adjustable pads can fine-tune the fit.
Are Marcolin frames Rx-ready or progressive-friendly?
Yes, most Marcolin eyeglass frames are Rx-ready and commonly accommodate progressive and blue-light lenses. Frames ship with non-prescription demo lenses, and ModaFrames does not install prescription lenses. Your local optician can confirm lens options for your chosen frame.
What materials and hinges should I expect?
You’ll typically find acetate for rich color and structure, metal for a lighter feel, and combinations of both. Spring hinges add flex and comfort for active days; standard hinges feel firmer and classic. Pick based on how much flexibility you like at the temples.
Can I adjust the nose pads or temples?
Small tweaks are fine at home: tiny turns on pad arms or gentle temple bends can improve comfort. If you’re unsure, a local optician can do a quick tune-up to align the bridge and temples so the frame sits level and feels secure.
How fast is shipping and will I get tracking?
We offer free US shipping with tracking updates sent to your email once the order is fulfilled. Typical delivery windows are a few business days, depending on method and destination. For current timelines and details, please refer to our Shipping Policy.
What’s the return window and condition?
Returns are accepted within 30 days of receipt as long as the item is new, unused, and includes all original accessories. Original shipping fees aren’t refundable, and return shipping is the buyer’s responsibility. Start a return from your account order page.
Do Marcolin eyeglasses arrive with a case?
Most frames ship in original brand cases; some models may arrive in a reliable generic case. For the exact items included with a specific frame, check “Frame Specifications” on its product page before purchase.
