from stainless steel
sheet-metal
- a pair of ic! berlin glasses is born!
we place an intense amount of value on the steel. the quality of this material determines the overall quality of the glasses.
for this reason, we rely solely on german producers, who brew the stuff together in germany, exactly according to our requirements. our buyers base their purchasing decisions from time to time on surface-finish impressions, tensile strength tests, and form-retention stability.
the front pieces are cut from the metal by a small family business in the north of italy (valdobiaddere). the flat raw pieces are then reformed in berlin, and the edges are worked over in a small village near brandenburg. there the edges are rounded and smoothed. this is done using a big multiangular trovalising (vibratory grinding process) machine. after about ten hours, sharp metal edges are made into tender feminine curves.
the cutting and routing of the lenses is done directly in our building in the saarbrücker street, where finishing and quality control takes place as well. on the same floor as production, our office is also to be found, from where our logistic experts send the glasses out into the entire world.
on the whole, it can be said that business relationships built up over many years guarantee the highest possible amount of quality. this goes for the steel, the cutting, our lenses, and all other components of production.
when you hold a pair of ic! berlin glasses in your hands, you can feel why all of this effort is justified: the glasses captivate you with their form-stability, and flexibility. the rounded edges caress your fingers. ic! berlin glasses do not allow for compromises, because they are naked. because we neither screw, solder, or weld, no pair of ic! berlin glasses can irreversibly lose its parts or components!
