O termo SIRE é usado para definir um Homem nobre, estimado. Um Homem com autoridade, um cavaleiro, alguém com destaque pelos seus feitos.
Desde o séc. XIII que o titulo SIRE é dirigido a alguém de alta relevância. E como tal, um SIRE tinha a ambição de usar apenas aquilo que era da mais refinada qualidade e aparência única, servido-se assim do que era feito pelas mãos dos melhores artesãos.
A SIRE pretende eternizar essas tradições com a melhor produção manual, um design forte e os melhores materiais. Para que assim possam ser usadas por Homens e Mulheres nobres.

Fabrico Manual
Cada peça SIRE é feita de chifre de búfalo numa colaboração entre a aekae e a Swisshorn.
Uma pequena fábrica no cantão Suiço, produz high-end eyewear em chifre de búfalo há bastantes anos e foram vários os protótipos SIRE até a primeira linha ser lançada.
São inúmeras etapas e todas elas manuais...

Pequenas placas de chifre laminadas são cortadas com o formato da frente e hastes. Estas atravessam depois uma série de etapas onde são limadas e polidas. Após concluídas, as peças são reunidas, e cada armação SIRE é gravada a laser com o seu número individual.
Por fim são colocadas as lentes. É nesta fase que o design SIRE brilha, ao tirar partido da flexibilidade natural do chifre.
Chifre Natural
Os óculos SIRE são transformados em requintadas peças a partir do chifre de Búfalo Asiático. Este produtivo animal é extremamente comum no Sul da Ásia onde em estado adulto os seus chifres podem atingir os dois metros de comprimento, ou seja quatro de envergadura. Todo o animal é aproveitado e os seus chifres eternizados em objectos únicos dignos de um Gentleman ou Gentlewoman.

ORIGIN
A Sire was a Gentleman of rank, a Nobleman of certain esteem. He was a man of authority, a Cavalier, a Knight.
It was from the 13th century on that Sire was used as a title to address someone of high regard. And as such, a Sire had the ambition to only wear what was of refined quality and unique appearance, whereat he would always find it made by the hands of the best craftsmen.
At SIRE we aim to pursue those traditions and cater to them with craftsmanship, sharp designs, and fine materials – to be worn by Noblemen and Gentlewomen.

CRAFTING
Each single piece of SIRE eyewear is handcrafted out of natural horn
A small manufacturing company in the midlands of Switzerland, has been working with the high-value material for years. It produced numerous prototypes of SIRE spectacles before the first line had been launched.
Designing the eyewear, aekae builds on the tradition of using natural horn as a working material for premium objects. The spectacles’ open part just above the nose has made for a capturing feature ever since the first pieces.
By bringing together their respective skills and impressions, aekae and Swisshorn create something truly noble and unique.

SIRE spectacles are hand crafted into exquisite eyewear from water buffalo horn. This productive livestock is one of Southern Asia’s mightiest animals and can grow horns up to two meters in length. And once a water buffalo has deceased its horns can be used in creating long lasting products.
Swisshorn hand selects every single piece of horn used in manufacturing SIRE spectacles. Because it is a natural material, each piece of horn differs in color and pattern – and therefore makes every frame a one of a kind.
