SPICY EYES AND DA VINCI - MADE IN ITALY
Interesting facts about origins of optical frames and accessories:
- Optical frames arriving into Canada do not have to have the stamp of origin of the country where it is made. That is why we have frames that have stamps like the following:
FRAME CANADA
FRAME ITALY
DESIGN CANADA
DESIGN ITALY
ITALIAN DESIGN
CANADIAN DESIGN
- Most of the Optical frames and accessories that are supplied into the Canadian market place are from Asia and more specifically, the Republic of China.
- The fact is that if a frame is made in a particular country, the frame has to be marked with "MADE IN" i.e. "MADE IN ITALY". This means that the frame was 100 % manufactured in that particular country.
- Suppliers do this so that they can achieve and demand greater margins and prices for their products, through deception and misrepresenting the product and its origin. Products may look similar to the Spicy Eyes and DaVinci frames, but they have in actuality been produced with poorer quality and standards. These products may even be priced higher despite the fact that they are produced at 1/20th of the cost of a quality crafted product made in Italy, Germany or Japan - countries recognized for their quality and craftsmanship in the industry for centuries.
-TEK OPTICAL in cooperation with Italy is now embarking on an aggressive campaign to alienate the cheaters by marking on the demonstration lenses "100 % MADE IN ITALY" on all the DA VINCI AND SPICY EYES COLLECTIONS and that will also have the Italian Flag embossed on the demonstration lenses. |
