Blackfin Pacific blends the uncluttered elegance of retro Japanese lines with a more-refined Californian style. The essential shapes are reinterpreted, making room for a more modern, contemporary aesthetic. Ultrathin titanium temples design clean, minimalist frames. Soft in their details, yet capable of accentuating the refined and sophisticated spirit of this series.
Created by our Research & Development division, Blackfin Pacific overcomes the technical limitations of processing titanium. Our technicians skillfully derive the entire front from a single 3mm block of titanium, eliminating unnecessary welds. Other micro-components are integrated into the monolithic front, adding continuity to the frame’s aesthetic.
Each individual is unique, that's why we engineered every frame component to perfectly adapt to any face. The only welded elements are the nose pad arms, which are made with ultra-flexible titanium to ensure extreme adaptability even for Asian fit and extraordinary adhesion to the face, along with the LitePads silicone nose pads. Equipped with our patented Swordfish temple tips, these ultra-flexible temples can be quickly and easily adjusted in length to ensure perfect wearability for everyone.
Translating the complexity of Titanium into softness of shapes is an intricate process. It took more than 50 years of experience to attain extreme functionality in Blackfin Pacific frames. With dedication and creativity, generations of men and women have refined their skills, transforming each phase of the production process into a Made-in-Italy masterpiece. Learning to connect soft curves and thin lines in titanium to create eyewear with simple, pure minimalism.
In Blackfin Pacific, color is also a key feature. In this collection, the different finishes are designed to enhance its more classic and rational character, without overtones. Polished and matte effects alternate with enamels and antiqued treatments to highlight the craftsmanship excellence of our coloring methods. A process carried out by hand, in our sustainable headquarters in Italy, using only natural tints.
