The Milford is a Victorian inspired design, phenomenally crafted from pure Japanese titanium. The full-rim rounded frame is an elegant and highly distinctive update on an easily recognisable classic, well suited to those with angular faces.
Handcrafted in Japan
Each of our Titanium frames are forged in Fukui, Japan by master craftsmen some of whom were present when the world's first titanium frames were produced. The lead craftsmen each have over 35 years of experience in creating the world's highest quality titanium eyewear and apply their knowledge and skill into each and every frame they make.
##Our craftsmen ensure that every single titanium frame is crafted from pure Japanese Titanium, entirely free of any trace of nickel or other metals and impurities.
The temples are finished with acetate ends made from the same premium Japanese acetate we use in the manufacture of our acetate collection, ensuring only the highest grade materials are used throughout.

So what does it all mean, really? Quality is an easy word to throw around but how can it all be judged?
Longevity, resistance and strength are our metrics. In this case there is no match... in the event of incident the lightweight, yet cunningly durable Japanese titanium can easily be re-shaped, blue coated screws ensure each piece is locked into place and the frame remains resistant to any sort of corrosion whatsoever. Let the machine come, this will hang about.
