“ The increasing popularity of Clear Crystal frames over the last couple years has created an interest in lightly tinted materials.

We combine traditional dyeing techniques and new tinting processes to create light shift of colour on both shiny and matt Clear Crystal frames. In our St Albans Lab we can develop bespoke dip-dyed frames in a variety of multi-coloured options to suit our customer’s requirements.

The most popular tints have been very light blue, pink, grey and green. For multi-colour dip-dye we suggest grey/pink and red/blue combinations, they are the more sought-after and add a subtle individuality note to any frame. “
– Robert Roope
