Every detail counts

  • Refined acetate rim

    Meticulously assembled in stainless steel frame. Made from acetate supplied by Mazzucchelli and LA/ES, two Italian names with generations of experience in this material.

  • Swiss Lacquer

    Every frame is hand-coloured, a process no machine has taken over. The colour holds its depth for years, not just the first season.

  • Galvanization

    Before coloring, the frame is galvanized. An extra step that ensures the color becomes part of the frame instead of sitting on top of it.

  • Teflon Screws

    Small parts carry a lot of responsibility. Ours are Teflon-coated, built to hold up over years of everyday use.

  • Stainless Steel

    The base material for every metal frame we make. Strong enough to hold its shape for years, light enough to forget you’re wearing it.

  • Acetate Temple Tips

    Metal against skin isn’t always comfortable, especially behind the ear. A small acetate tip softens that contact and holds its shape without feeling rigid.

  • Adjustable nosepads

    No two faces sit the same way on a frame. Ours adjust so the fit doesn’t have to be a compromise.

  • OBE Hinge

    Three barrel hinges per temple, built with German precision to hold the bond between front and temple for years, not seasons.
