Several years ago, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London presented an exhibition titled: “What is Luxury?” The exhibit was an influential and intriguing perception about the concepts of luxury, and how culture and communication have evolved into something beyond self-indulgence for a lavish gift or extravagant personalized service.

Nowadays, the image of luxury includes less tangible forms, including time, space, self-care, and wellbeing. Ostentatious displays of opulence are generally seen as over-the-top, while superb quality, authentic craftsmanship, pure, natural materials and artisan creativity supports and empowers luxury today. These emerging attitudes also influence how eyewear designers view luxury frames.

Among those who bring expertise, charm, and poise to luxury eyewear is Danish designer Birgitte Falvin. She captures the elegance of the contemporary Nordic look with her distinguished designs for Falvin Eyewear. Black Diamonds is a superbly crafted frame in lightweight, fine quality titanium with 24-caret gold plating, with glittering little black diamonds. A well-known Danish jeweler, who incorporates traditional techniques for long-lasting beauty and durability, creatively and delicately arranges the valued and rare Wesselton VVS diamond settings.

The multi-color ionic plating process is retro-futuristic with its gradient colorations. With this treatment, the color variation changes randomly with each frame, because the ionic plating cannot be reproduced identically on each model, providing a one-of-a-kind frame for the wearer.

Beautiful materials, elegant shapes, and colors in luxury eyewear, is a tribute to artisan workmanship and design ingenuity – as well as inspiring comfort and pleasure.
