Entry Description

Flaminia 202 of the “excellence collection” stands out with
its feminine and classy design. The frame present a
sophisticated butterfly shape, elegant and classic. The
frame combines most impressively the wood types
eucalyptus and silver oak. The smoking of the wood gives
the eucalyptus veneer a very expressive colour which
doesn’t show any signs of aging even after many years and
is also more durable. The steaming process creates a silver
shimmer which gives the veneer an elegant appearance.

The excellence collection presents more sophisticated
wooden hinge, the optimised lens-glazing system and
meticulously executed details such as two-tone styles and
engravings. The frame can be adjusted for each client using
heat. The ergonomically shaped temple tips are comfortable
to put on. ROLF frames have no screws or metal, are
extremely light, comfortable to wear, easy-care,
maintenance-free and suitable for allergy sufferers.

Bio

Glasses manufacturer ROLF was founded in 2009 in the heart of Austria’s Tyrolean Alps. The family company has become known for its unique wooden glasses, and has now supplemented its offering with eyewear made out of titanium, stone, horn, and plant-based materials – all without using any screws, thereby eliminating the need for any maintenance. ROLF continues to manufacture in the home of the brand, by hand, and using natural resources, thereby remaining faithful to the guiding principle of the business: creating products that respect yesterday, work for today, and prepare for tomorrow.

Awards and Prize

The eyewear designer’s approach is to combine his love of nature with timeless styles and innovative technology, the success of which is evidenced by numerous awards, including the Silmo d’Or, the German Design Award, the Green Design Award, the Red Dot Award, and the Muse Design Award.
