Hand Polished By ?

Eyewear with a Personal Touch by Götti

1st February 2015 Authentic Eyewear has been the philosophy of Sven Götti since he created his first collection twenty years ago. To reach the highest standard of a Götti acetate frame, it requires a skillful interaction of various processes. Götti thought of how they could summarize all these facts in a personal way – right to the beholder of Götti eyewear. The inscription “Hand polished by…” on the inside of the temple reflects the high quality of the material used from the best acetate Italian producer, plus it illustrates the specific Götti process. Manufacturing the frames is a success thanks to many years of a close partnership with experienced workers, who know every detail and how the accomplish the perfect technique.

Hand polishing eyewear is comparable with cutting a diamond. It takes years to perfect and develop the proper hand technique for the polishing. With a gentle touch of the chief polishers, details and colours radiate and become more intense. With talent and precision, they use trained movements to polish the unmistakable Götti shine on acetate eyeglasses. The design details and colour combinations are assembled with sensitivity, and the colours are produced exclusively for Götti. The label “hand polished by…” is the essence of all the puzzle pieces, that stand behind the design and colour brilliance. It is a quality seal that stands for a personal story.

Hand polisher Barbara at Götti commented: “Every quality of acetate and every shape of the glasses is a new challenge. It is in my hands to optimize the motion sequences so that I can reach the perfect result. I put a lot of passion into the detail and it is always a glorious moment when I hold the finished frame in my hands.” www.gotti.ch JG
