We make all our frames in the same way, to the same exacting standards to ensure exceptional quality and consistency. Each frame goes through fifty crafted stages of production over a period of six weeks. You can read more about ten of those steps here.

All our final spectacles are assembled at our production facility in King’s Cross, London (England).

We make our frames in workshops in London (England), Shanghai (China), and Sabae (Japan). 

  • London (England), our own workshop in King’s Cross, making all our small batch frames, including Bespoke
  • Shanghai (China), our own acetate workshop in Jiangsu province, making our core collection acetate frames, employing around forty skilled makers 
  • Sabae (Japan), an independent spectacles factory in Fukui prefecture, specialising in titanium production who are over a century old, employing around fifty skilled makers
