1.8g World's Lightest Glasses... Horus International 'Silhouette'

[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Horus International Silhouette is called the "revolution in the eyewear industry." Founded in 1964 by Arnold Schmied, born in Austria, it has grown into a leading company that currently leads the global eyewear market. The place of origin and manufacturing country are the same. It is famous for its unique designs and producing the lightest glasses in the world using cutting-edge technology. A representative model is the Titan Minimal Art, born in 1999 as glasses without screws.

Weighing only 1.8g, it revolutionized the eyewear industry at the time. While regular frames tend to have damaged or loosened joints after long-term wear, Silhouette drastically improved this inconvenience by minimizing parts. In 2005, it gained even more spotlight when chosen by the crew of the space shuttle Discovery. Lightweight was achieved through high-tech titanium and SPX material, a synthetic resin developed by Silhouette itself.

It has excellent durability and elasticity, and does not discolor even after a long time. It actually protected astronauts' safety in zero gravity conditions and prevented slipping. It is interesting that the entire manufacturing process is carried out at Silhouette's headquarters in Austria. It exports to 100 countries and is used by more than 11 million people. It is classic yet distinctive. With lens shapes, accent rings, and temple colors, 200 different styles can be created.
