The 3 words that characterize Lindberg glasses are quality, comfort, and innovation.
Driven by this spirit, the Danish eyewear company produces high-level glasses with a distinctive style. A minimalist and sophisticated design, combined with artisanal construction that utilizes the most advanced technologies.
But where did Lindberg originate?
The history of Lindberg glasses
Lindberg was founded in 1986 in Denmark, from the collaboration of Henrik Lindberg, an architect, and Poul-Jørn Lindberg, an optician and Henrik's father.
By combining their strengths and working on a new concept of eyewear, they managed to find an absolutely original way to create glasses that offer maximum practicality and a strong personality.
From the very beginning, their preferred material has been titanium. Over the years, they have developed a skill in using this material that places them among the best in the world, but at the same time, Lindberg remains a family-run business, where the two founders still guide the direction.
What makes Lindberg glasses special and why are they among the most appreciated in the world?
How Lindberg glasses are made
“We have been working with titanium for over 25 years and our knowledge of this material clearly sets us apart from others”
says Henrik Lindberg in an interview with Luxe Beat Magazine.
Today, Lindberg has several employees working in the company but has always continued to do everything “in-house” without relying on external suppliers. This way, they have always been able to maintain control over the production process and uphold very high quality standards.
The ability to combine advanced techniques with the craftsmanship of artisans also allows for a unique and unmistakable touch.
Lindberg has always believed strongly in the need to be a step ahead in innovation, and has invested in the most advanced machines for material processing. Great importance is also given to the research and development department, which every day finds new solutions to produce lightweight, comfortable, and highly sought-after glasses.
The greatest innovation of Lindberg glasses lies in the complete absence of screws and rivets, which allows for minimal weight and thus creates ultra-lightweight, minimalist, and essential glasses. The titanium wire used in construction allows for robust and almost invisible joints.
The ability to design and construct glasses innovatively has allowed Lindberg to win a total of 112 international awards.
The materials used
In addition to the aforementioned titanium, Lindberg uses precious materials such as gold, horn, platinum, and diamonds.
A constant search for the most precious and at the same time difficult-to-handle materials, which are skillfully worked by artisans.
Alongside this, Lindberg places great importance on the sustainability of the raw materials used. All materials are certified and come from producers who ensure compliance with international regulations.
Lindberg glasses: unique and customizable design objects
Every Lindberg eyewear piece is unique and handmade. Thanks to this production process, you can have a personal accessory created specifically for you. The production house even allows you to engrave your name inside the temples, adding an extra touch of uniqueness!
The flexibility of titanium also allows for a perfect fit to the wearer's face.
The most iconic collection of Lindberg, and probably the most appreciated worldwide, is the Rim collection.
In every pair of glasses, you can find the craftsmanship of artisans and unparalleled comfort.
The titanium wire, shaped according to Lindberg's exclusive lines, transforms into round, oval, and square glasses, appreciated worldwide for their lightness as well as their aesthetics.
Our favorite models from the Rim collection are the Rim Bo and the Rim Morten.
Both perfectly represent the Lindberg philosophy: of highest quality, extremely comfortable to wear, and unique in their design.
Our choice has fallen on purple and green, custom colors from the Mondelliani team to give you an even more distinctive pair of glasses.
For those looking for a more aggressive look, some models like the Jackie feature acetate rings within the frame that further emphasize the gaze and add depth. A choice we recommend for those who do not want to go unnoticed while maintaining enviable comfort.
Also for those who love to stand out while keeping an elegant style, Lindberg has launched the Acetanium collection: titanium is used together with acetate to create glasses full of personality, such as in the model 1050.
Finally, Lindberg's continuous innovation is perfectly reflected in the Strip titanium collection, particularly in the model 8556. In this case, the frame is not created through molding, but the various parts of the glasses are laser-cut from ultra-thin sheets of titanium. A method devised by Lindberg to allow designers to unleash their creativity while preserving all the properties of the metal.
