Japanese Eyeglasses, Shaping of the Frame Front
Factory owner explaining frame front shaping process
Today we’re at another Japanese eyeglass frame factory. The owner is explaining to us what can be done by machine and what must be done by hand when they are shaping the frame front to create the design we’re looking for. He’s holding in his hand what will be the front piece of a pair of glasses. It has been cut halfway out of acetate and is just beginning it’s journey to become a pair of glasses.
