Mykita reinterprets the timeless allure of tortoiseshell with Amber Havana, a warm, modern acetate finish that blends craftsmanship, innovation, and understated elegance
Tortoiseshell is a texture that embodies warmth, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal. With Amber Havana, Mykita presents a contemporary reinterpretation of this eyewear classic, blending tradition with the brand’s signature spirit of experimentation and minimalist design.
As with all Mykita creations, each Amber Havana frame is handcrafted at the Mykita Haus in Berlin, the brand’s independent production hub that merges engineering precision with artisanal savoir-faire. At the core lies the Endura hinge, engineered for smooth movement and lasting durability — a hallmark of Mykita’s seamless fusion of design and function.
The new colorway dresses several of the brand’s most recognizable acetate models — including Nyara, Nanna, Kais, Naama, Oceane, and Atine — each offering a distinct personality while sharing a harmonious balance and proportion.
With Amber Havana, Mykita once again demonstrates its ability to translate classic eyewear codes into a modern design language — a tribute to material, craftsmanship, and light that transforms an archetype into a contemporary statement.
