Blackfin – Technology Meets Artisanship

Minimalist design, exclusive detail, high-tech materials and futuristic manufacturing techniques, all these factors come together in Blackfin, the brand of titanium eyewear entirely designed and manufactured in Italy whose new Fall/Winter 2015/16 collection is launched.

Two models, BF739 Frazier and BF740 Shag, the first a frame for women, the second for men, share the same styling, featuring the innovative three-dimensional effect, combining hand-crafted techniques with modern design and excellent quality. A special milling technique used on the top rim creates a play of volumes and a contrasting perspective between the front and the rest of the frame, making it possible to use new colour combinations that enhance the unique design of the frame with its three-dimensional effect.

Model BF743 Waterhouse is a frame for men whose classic panto shape reinterprets the mid-20th-Century look. This model, with its rounded lines and keyhole bridge combines a traditional shape with modern materials and design, the perfect expression of timeless style.

The 1970s are the inspiration for the Blackfin Zero EDGE BF746 Funders with its double bridge, the perfect mix of vintage style with high-tech manufacture, a classic form revisited in new materials and new detail. The ultra-thin beta titanium, only 0.5mm thick, used for this frame presents a major manufacturing challenge that only the expert artisan skills of the Blackfin production team can overcome.
