Cutler and Gross's 'Aurum' collection combines the luxury of precious metals with the subtlety of Swiss steel. The shapes are refined, minimal, and incredibly lightweight, inspired by silhouettes of their past collections. Each frame is handcrafted in their metalworking factory in the Dolomite mountains, then plated in 18K rhodium and/or 18K gold. The factory honours the tradition of the finest jewelry makers in Italy, some of whom have specialized in these plating techniques for decades.

The temple tips of these lightweight frames bear the collection's moniker, while also acting as a counterbalance to keep these frames securely worn. With no detail left unnoticed, the Aurum collection is a harmony between refinement and craftsmanship.
