Here is the "EMIR V1," our first model of rapper glasses! Emir ICE is one of the only stores that sells these hip-hop glasses. You might see some of the top rappers wearing them, from Soulja Boy to Lil Wayne and Future.
The diamonds that cover these lenses are made of lab-simulated VVS stones (Certified 3mm cubic zirconia), with a guaranteed shine to dazzle the eyes from every direction.
LUXURY GOLD-PLATED DIAMOND RAPPER GLASSES: Handcrafted piece in 925 sterling silver plated with 18K gold and covered in a multitude of quality fine and precious stones.
Let's be clear about what you are buying. These glasses do not replace classic men's sunglasses: their lenses are entirely covered in stones, and they are designed as a style, stage, and photo accessory, not as certified sun protection or optical equipment. It is this deliberate choice that makes them one of the most recognizable accessories in hip-hop fashion.
Compared to discreet and timeless luxury men's sunglasses, the Emir V1 model plays the opposite role: it is meant to be seen, photographed, and noticed. You wear them for a music video, a party, or a photoshoot, rarely for driving.
Compared to designer men's sunglasses, these models do not seek discretion: they embrace their role as a stage accessory, and that is precisely what those who wear them are looking for.
The model is described as an 18-karat gold-plated silver frame, adorned with lab-simulated VVS stones, certified 3 mm cubic zirconia. None of these stones are diamonds: they are simulators, chosen for their refractive index and the uniformity of their cut. We prefer to write this in black and white rather than leaving any doubt about the nature of the stones.
A pair this bold requires an outfit that gives them space. The most effective approach is to keep everything else simple: a solid-colored piece, few neck jewels, and let the glasses draw the eye. Conversely, those who follow trendy men's sunglasses and love layering can pair them with a large Cuban chain while keeping the rest understated.
