The glasses of thin stainless sheet with hinges without screws.

Mykita was started in Berlin in 2003 by four friends. The brand’s first collection, Lite, relies on a hinge that is a bend in the sheet and so needs no screws.

The glasses are made by hand in Berlin from thin sheet. They became an example of new German design.

Materials: Stainless steel, plastic lenses

Manufacture: Made by Mykita in Berlin from 2003.
