Handmade Eyewear
Handmade Frames for Glasses
Robert Max is one of only a few places in Omaha where customization reigns supreme. In fact, our opticians can help you craft 100% original, personalized frames thanks to our elite in-house brand of eyewear. All our frames are hand-crafted by a team of artisans in Germany, meaning each pair is absolutely, uniquely yours.
We primarily use Mazzuchelli acetate for our frames because it’s a lightweight, plant-based material that’s durable for long-term wear. Color, size, shape, and style options are all up for discussion, and the power to pick your perfect pair is in your hands when you work with Robert Max to create your next custom eyewear.
Bespoke Eyewear Options at Robert Max
While we can customize certain elements of any brand we carry to meet your needs, choosing a pair from our proprietary Robert Max Collection ensures we can tweak every aspect of your glasses for unmatched personalization, quality, and fit.
We can create any shape in any color or any size thanks to our two brands which allow for completely bespoke options. Additionally, some of the other brands allow for further shape and color customizations which our opticians would be happy to help you navigate when you stop into the boutique.
Who Benefits from Handmade Eyewear?
Eyewear Artists: Working with independent artisans also helps support them and their families. Unlike large manufacturers that can sometimes exploit lower income workers, the small companies we work with all ensure their employees earn fair, and often above-market, wages.
The Environment: Working with small businesses is more environmentally friendly because they don’t create the amount of waste large manufacturers create. Many of the brands we choose to work with also take part in donating to environmental causes and focus on sustainability in their policies and procedures. Plus, our frames are made with Mazzuchelli acetate, not plastic, so working with Robert Max helps reduce your carbon footprint and support independent artists all in one!
Our Customers: While handmade, bespoke eyewear is an attractive option for most people, they can be especially helpful for people with distinct features that are difficult to adjust for. If you typically have difficulty finding glasses that fit your face right off the rack, consider a custom, handmade pair from Robert Max for your vision needs.
