2 brand new models from the ic!Berlin sunglasses range have arrived in the shop. As usual, they ooze quality and style with the trademark ic!Berlin temple hinge and their unsurpassed comfort. The ladies model “Nikola” and the mens style “Kornelius” both feature top quality polarised lenses which are coated with an anti-reflection coat on the inside surface. Both can also be fitted with prescription lenses if so desired. ... read more

A trend, currently set by some top German and Danish frame designers, is to keep their designs simple, with clean lines, light but still extremely robust and strong. 3 companies in particular stand out: ic!berlin, MYKITA from Germany and Lindberg from Denmark. All three companies not only design their frames, they also manufacture them in their respective countries. Is alone is already somewhat against the trend, because many frame design companies have their designs made in Japan or China. ... read more

You may have noticed that our Online Shop is not accessable at the moment. It is currently being renovated as the “old” shop turned out to be rather difficult to navigate and we also had a few issues with it’s integration into the main website (that’s what happens when an amateur tries to do everything himself – never mind, we enjoy it). Hopefully we’ll be able to get the shop back online in a few days or so. ... read more

Everyone knows we love ic!berlin! Why? Simply because the ic!berlin design concept is so unique, simple, flexible and sturdy. It’s funny really – when I meet another ic!berlin wearer, we end up admiring each others frames. It doesn’t really matter if I had known this person before or not, a bond is formed almost instantly, be it only by way of a smile or a positive eye contact (but probably both). “So you are wearing an ic!berlin as well? Great choice! I love mine. How long have you had yours?”… and so it usually goes. ... read more

I can assure you we won’t do it all year round like some other shops. A sale should be a sale and not a year round event, because if it does, it isn’t a sale any more, right? So, what’s our first ever “Spring Sale” all about? Well, between now and the middle of December, we are giving our clients a great discount of $100 off the price of selected prescription glasses or prescription sunglasses. Although the sale is limited to certain ranges of frames and sunglasses collection, it still covers a large part of our inventory. If you are in need of new glasses or want to invest into some really great prescription suglasses for the summer, let us show you what’s possible. ... read more

Has it happened to you? You go visit your local optical shop and can’t really find anything you like. You have a vague idea what you are looking for, but most of the frames you see seem to have been there already last time you had your eyes examined – and that was 2 years ago! We are aware of this and have made sure this will not happen in our practice. We learned early on that one can only be passionate in something one does, when you believe it it. That is why we “hand pick” every single frame ourselves. ... read more
