Titanium

Lighter than a 20p piece. Ten times stronger than acetate.

For over a century, a tiny, independent workshop in Sabae, Japan, has been shaping titanium. 

Now partnering with Cubitts, the resulting 99.7% pure titanium spectacle frames are lighter than a 20p piece and ten times stronger than acetate. They are hypoallergenic, and will not corrode, tarnish or rust. 

Beyond the strength and durability, there's the design. Handmade custom components, temple tips drawn from Constantin Brâncușis' Bird in Space and cross hatching from the King's Cross gas holders. Bridge and nosepads formed from a single continuous piece of titanium.

  • Five times lighter than acetate, weighing 5 grams without lenses.
  • Corrosion resistant and exceedingly strong, made to last a lifetime.
  • Ion plated in gold, silver, or gunmetal to over 0.3µ.
  • Adjustable titanium nose pads for stability and comfort.
  • Temple tips inspired by Constantin Brâncuși’s Bird in Space, cross hatched for a superior lateral grip to hold your frame in place.
  • Four styles of wire rimmed spectacles: round, panto, square, and ‘hexa’.
