collec t ion 2011
Skaga has a heritage that few eyewear brands could rival. We have been making eyewear since 1948 backed by skilled craftsmanship and a long design tradition. That’s why we know what’s required when it comes to both style and function. Our high standards mean our frames are renowned for their simple yet elegant design solutions and the care given to the smallest details.
LIZ. This wonderfully colourful pattern using a two-tone technique where matt meets gloss puts you in mind of magically beautiful mermaids who seduce their admirers. The shape combined with the pattern that glides across the front also has a slight 1950s vibe but with a 2011 twist. designe r anna mälstad

TRIXI. These very flattering frames with their discreet semi rimless front will appeal to a wide customer group. These too have an underwater element in the shape of a subtle fish scale pattern which has been pressed into the shimmering pearl acetate of the sidepieces. designe r anna mälstad

AMY. These neat acetate frames have a trendy feminine form with a 1950s feel. The oval shape and high sidepiece fastening provide a much longed-for alternative for women who want to be seen but don’t want to wear really large frames. The shiny fish scale pattern and “air bubbles” in the sidepieces create an association with being under the water. designe r anna mälstad

REX. This classic “TV-screen” has proved to be a perfect unisex style that flatters everyone from the mature, well-dressed man, to the younger girl or guy looking for some cool eyewear with a slightly deeper shape. Rex is designed using a new way of working with coloured and acetate inlays. This means that the transition from front to sidepiece is covered to conceal hinges and metal fixings to create cool, clean results. designe r eva - lena bäckst r öm

Customized
Skaga CUSTOMIZED is the result of yet more successful teamwork from Scandinavian Eyewear’s in-house designers and product developers. We have a clear vision of being at the forefront of development. That is why we are constantly working on new ideas. We listen to our customers and the needs and wishes of users. Skaga CUSTOMIZED came about because of the need to be able to choose the same acetate frames with our without pads. The team put their wise heads together; the product was constructed, tested and packed with current accessories. We are now launching the start kit with 3x3 sizes of nose pads, an assembly tool and assembly instructions. All you have to do is refill your toolbox by ordering refill bags after the pads wear out.

M AT E R I A L I N F O R M AT I O N Frames Scandinavian Eyewear uses primarily acetate and monel, which are easy materials to work with. If the material is not specified for a frame, it is made of acetate, monel, nickel silver, stainless steel or titanium.
Earpieces / Templetips Scandinavian Eyewear uses two types of earpieces / templetips – acetate and thermoplastic.
Hinges In most cases, we use traditional hinges from leading European supplier.
Pads Scandinavian Eyewear uses two types of pads – PVC and silicon. Padarms On titanium frames the padarms are in titanium, on metal frames the material is monel or nickel silver.
Screws On most of our frames there is one or more screws, to the hinge, decor or the glass. These screws are made in stainless steel with one exception, and that is on our titanium frames that have an acetatecovering on the inside of the titanium temples. This acetate-covering is fasten with titanium screws.
Which materials are your frames made of? Our glasses are made of a large number of materials. The most common materials used in making frames are acetate, monel, nickelsilver, stainless steel and titanium. If you are oversensitive to a particular metal, it is a good idea to find out which metals the frames are made of before deciding on your new glasses.
Surface coating of metal frames All Scandinavian Eyewear metal frames have three-layer protection consisting of two electrolyte coatings and a layer of varnish. This makes our frames certified according to EU standards for nickel discharge.
Monel The most common metal used to manufacture eyeglass frames is monel, a nickel-copper alloy with very high tensile strength. This alloy is highly resistant to corrosion, salt water, various acids and alkaline solutions. The material has a glossy silver colour. Monel consists of: nickel 65%, copper 32.4%, iron 1.5%, manganese 1.0%, carbon 0.05%, sulphur 0.001%, silicon 0.02%, aluminium 0.01%, titanium 0.01% Soldering: Silver solder is used according to traditional methods.
Nickel silver Nickel silver contains of 61% copper, 18% nickel and 21% zinc. Often being used on bridges. Soldering: Silver solder is used according to traditional methods.
Stainless steel Is mainly contained of chrome. This gives strength, flexibility and durability. The material is extreme resistant against corrosion. Can be manufactured very thin and is therefore suitable for temples. May contain a small amount of nickel. Soldering: Silver solder is used according to traditional methods.
Acetate When people talk about “plastic frames”, they usually mean frames made of acetate. This is true of Scandinavian Eyewear’s “plastic frames”, too. Acetate is not, as many believe, a plastic at all. It is a cellulose-acetate or acetate rayon produced by the acetylation of cellulose (cotton) with a solution of acetic anhydride and sulphuric acid. Acetate frames are nickel-free, but the hinges being used on acetate frames may contain small amounts of nickel.
Titanium This material is being used in the eyeglass industry primarily as a result of the past and present debate on nickel allergies and the occurrence of nickel in certain other materials used to make eyeglass frames. Titanium offers many advantages: low weight, high durability and a high tensile yield limit. As a result, it can be used to make frames that are very thin and yet stand up to the requirements of users. Titanium is as strong as steel, but 45% lighter. Scandinavian Eyewear uses two types of titanium to manufacture frames, Titanium-P and Titanium-B. Titanium-P is 99.0–99.7% pure, while Titanium-B, which is found in our hinge and screws, is about 90% pure. Titanium-B is harder than Titanium-P, and is thus employed where there is more wear and tear. Titanium frames are therefore the best alternative if you are sensitive for example nickel. Sometimes titanium is being used together with acetate, (ex. titanium front and acetate temple) in this case a small amount of nickel can exist in the hinges. The alloy material is magnesium. Since both producing titanium and manufacturing the tools needed to work the material is difficult and expensive, titanium frames are more expensive than similar frames made from other materials. The material has a silver-grey colour. Titanium-P consists of: Titanium 99.0–99.7%, Iron, Carbon, Magnesium less than 1%. Titanium-B consists of: Titanium 90%, Iron 1%, Aluminium 3.5–4.5%, Carbon 0.1% Soldering: Titanium can be soldered but requires use of titanium solder and very high heat.
