15 November 2022

Italy has long been renowned as a Mecca of the fashion industry with its myriad iconic brands. In fact, the words “Made in Italy” have become synonymous with quality and sophistication, style and authenticity. Simply take a stroll through the streets of Milan and you’ll quickly see why!

Italian brand Blackfin is no exception with its bold, attractive designs. Read on to learn more about the company and their stellar collections of frames.

A company that is proud of its roots

Blackfin was founded in 1971 by Maria Pramaor in Agordo, a small village in the Italian Alps. More than 50 years later, Blackfin’s headquarters are still located in this picturesque town where the company’s skilled craftsmen and women continue to be inspired by the surrounding beauty. Today, the company remains steadfast in its loyalty to its roots, emphasizing its “neomadeitinaly” mindset that cares about the people and the land that have inspired the brand.

The art of titanium eyewear

Titanium is much more that a simple material for Blackfin – it’s an artform. The brand has been working with titanium since the 1990s and has perfected frames that are both modern and artisanal. Blackfin’s unmatched know-how has helped set them apart from competitors.

Design, durability, comfort.

This is exactly what Blackfin delivers with each pair of glasses. Their frames are the perfect blend of Japanese titanium, Scandinavian design, and Italian manufacturing. In other words, fashionable, high-quality, light frames for men and women.

In addition to being an easy way to add a hint of sophistication to your attire, Blackfin’s titanium frames are as solid as steel but weigh 40% less.

Furthermore, every frame designed by Blackfin features Swordfish temple tips, allowing you to easily adjust the length of your temples. This cutting-edge system translates into unparalleled comfort all day long.
