Blackfin
Blackfin has been working with titanium for over twenty years and over this time they have learned all the secrets of shaping the titanium and the skills and techniques for enhancing every one of its properties. This is why a Blackfin model is not just a spectacle frame but a masterpiece of engineering, technology and design.
Titanium is the soul of Blackfin Eyewear. Blackfin sources their titanium by traveling to far off Japan to purchase the world’s purest titanium, the product of the centuries of work the people of that land have devoted to perfecting that raw material. On reaching Italy, the titanium sheets are placed in the expert hands of the men and women of the Blackfin team whose talents enables them to transform the titanium into frames that are true works of art.
The titanium that Blackfin Eyewear uses does not cause allergies and irritation. Moreover, pure titanium and beta-titanium are not only nontoxic and biocompatible but they contain no residues of nickel or other heavy metals, all properties that ensure exceptional comfort in wear and total wellbeing.
The few grams of titanium material contained in each Blackfin frame combines state-of-the-art technology and incredible design.
Every detail is the product of an obsessive quest to create true works of art.
The temples and bridge of each Blackfin titanium frame are cut from a sheet of beta-titanium only 5 tenths of a millimeter thick, a material even more highly prized and flexible than pure titanium. These reduced dimensions guarantee perfect adaptability to the human face while embodying an impeccably minimalist style.
To adorn the temples, Blackfin uses high precision engraving using anodic laser technology in which the beam
cuts through the surface varnish creating amazing and really unusual colour effects.
Blackfin Nano-Plating combines design and molecular treatments using the principles of atomic physics to obtain amazing finishes.
This is all achieved in an environment reminiscent of space science inside an aseptic, vacuum-sealed bell-jar in which a metal or other precious material is first vaporised and then deposited atom by atom on the frame. This process enables Blackfin One models to be transformed into the deluxe
Blackfin Black Edition version made even more top-of-the-range by a stunning gold effect
Blackfin Luminar are exceptional lenses. Years of research and testing have created a revolutionary product. Never before have sunglass lenses been created combining the visual sharpness of glass with extreme lightness of weight. Blackfin Luminar technology has made all this possible.
Lightweight, strong and minimalist are three adjectives describing Blackfin Zero. All parts of these frames are made by milling a single block of beta-titanium with no soldering involved to guarantee a minimalist aesthetic, unbelievable lightness of weight and amazing strength.
The lens mounting pins are able to withstand much higher than normal stress without giving way in the slightest.
The inner part of each Blackfin frame is engraved with a unique code and an individual serial number to guarantee its origin and authenticity.
Further personalisation is also possible in that the frame can be engraved with the wearer’s name,
an acronym or a special marking to make the frame even more special and to set it apart from the others.
