For practices in Great Britain
Frames from independent Japanese makers that the high street doesn't carry, in quantities an independent practice can commit to. We buy in Japan, bring the frames in ourselves, and send you one invoice.
Sourcing
We're building direct relationships with frame makers across Japan: in Sabae, where most of Japan's frames are made, and with a small number of makers elsewhere working to the same standard. We met them in person in October 2026 rather than ordering from a catalogue.
No distributor sits between us and the bench. That's how allocations can stay small enough for an independent practice rather than a chain.
Exclusive models
Want a model no one near you carries? We can ask the maker for sole rights to it for your practice. Exclusivity is agreed model by model, in writing, and the maker will usually want a firmer commitment in return.
Import
Moving frames from Japan to Great Britain is tedious: commercial invoices, commodity codes, customs clearance, and a courier who won't move anything without an EORI number.
That's our job, not yours. We buy the frames in Japan and bring them in ourselves. You get the frames and a single invoice from a British company.

Compliance
Spectacle frames are Class I medical devices in Great Britain. Before we supply a frame, we make sure its maker has a UK Responsible Person and that the frame is registered with the MHRA, as the law requires.
Where a maker appoints us, we can take on that role following a review, written appointment and agreed terms. The maker prepares its technical documentation; we check and retain the required documents, register its devices and act as the contact with the MHRA.
Our responsibilities and any delegated incident reporting are agreed in writing. Where a maker already has a different UK Responsible Person, we tell them we are importing, and our details are recorded with the MHRA as the Great Britain importer.
