ic! berlin Glasses in NYC

ic! berlin doesn’t carry Berlin in its name as a branding exercise. The city is genuinely in its DNA. Founded in 1996 by Ralph Anderl, Philipp Haffmans, and Harald Gottschling, the brand started in a small Berlin apartment with a single revolutionary idea: build eyewear without a single screw, weld, or drop of glue. Their first frame — the “Jack” — weighed just 20 grams, was made from aluminum, and was produced in a run of only 50 pieces.

That first frame established the principle that still defines ic! berlin today: the patented no-screw hinge, crafted from 0.5mm stainless spring steel. It is the most copied innovation in modern eyewear — and it has never been surpassed by those who copied it.

Today, ic! berlin is headquartered in Berlin with offices in New York and Tokyo, selling in 60 countries across Europe, North America, and Asia. Every single frame is still handcrafted in their Berlin manufactory by a team of over 180 craftsmen, engineers, and technicians. No outsourcing. No shortcuts. Just the same precision and conviction that has driven the brand since 1996.

The result? Multiple SILMO d’Or awards — the most prestigious recognition in the global eyewear industry — including wins in 2008 and 2011. Not for marketing. For design and engineering excellence.

ic! berlin Frames at Konstantin

Discover the universe of ic! berlin on Konstantin, a space where technology and craftsmanship redefine modern eyewear. Founded in 1996 in Berlin, the brand has become a symbol of bold engineering and progressive design. Its iconic screwless hinge system and flexible frame construction have captured the attention of optical professionals worldwide, securing ic! berlin’s reputation as a true innovator in the eyewear industry.

As an authorized ic! berlin dealer, at Konstantin Vision, we carry ic! berlin frames at our NYC showroom — and they speak immediately to clients who value substance over surface.

ic! berlin attracts a specific kind of person. Entrepreneurs, architects, musicians, artists, engineers, scientists — people who think independently and want eyewear that reflects that. The brand’s design language is minimalist, urban, and deeply considered: clean lines, subtle design codes, and a no-screw hinge that is both the brand’s signature and its engineering statement.

The frames are robust and lightweight, built to last in real New York City life. The no-screw construction means no loose hinges, no lost screws, no trips back for adjustments that shouldn’t have been necessary in the first place. ic! berlin frames are designed to be disassembled and reassembled by hand — a level of repairability and longevity that very few eyewear brands can offer.

Materials span stainless steel, titanium, synthetic, and natural options — all worked by hand, all finished with ic! berlin’s signature color treatments, lacquering, and laser engraving. Every colorway is unique. Every finish is applied in-house.

At Konstantin Vision, our licensed opticians will introduce you to the full ic! berlin collection — and help you find the frame that expresses who you are, backed by over 25 years of NYC optical expertise.
