  • Meet the PANTO glass

    Since 2015 Sivertzen has been developing the Panto Brand, based on the original true panto that was now mostly found at antiquarians. PantoGlasses is now his regular business. The panto model is already 100 years old and is the most famous and iconic shape of glasses on the planet. Most every producer of eyeglasses frames has had one or more “panto-looking” models in their range. PantoGlasses is the complete conceptualization of panto. The legal immaterial rights and trademark for PantoGlasses are applied for and approved by WIPO World Intellectual Property.

    QUALITY

    The Panto Glasses is produced by a high-quality manufacturer in three different materials:

    • ACETATE is used for the Panto models Berlin, Boston, Chicago and Rome. Paris is also acetate – this model with metal temples and bridge, including silicone nose pads. The molded acetate is produced in large plates with the desired colors and color combinations. The frames are then milled out to their carefully engineered shape and size. Then frame and temples are polished and metal parts like hinges are mounted.
    • STAINLESS STEEL is used for the Panto model Oxford. The panto glasses made decades back in time were produced with nickel alloys. While these were known to give skin allergies, the PantoGlasses Oxford are nickel free, produced in Stainless Steel. The temples are available as normal temples and as curled temples. The model is available gold and silver color, with and without the brown acetate Windsor rings.
    • TITANIUM is used for the model Lima and Lyon. These glasses are rimless, meaning no frame around the lenses. With the fine materials and the superlight construction, these glasses appear very neutral.
      • RL33 is the characteristic Panto shape.
      • However, these two models Lima and Lyon are also offered in 20 other shapes of the lenses.
      • The model Lima is made of very thin super-memory titanium. The extremely fine construction will revert to its original shape after having been pressed apart (unless totally deformedJ)
      • Panto Model Lima are the worlds lightest glasses. Weight of the frame is 2,02 g(!)

  • THE PANTO STORY

    PANTO HISTORY

    The panto design was introduced to the market in the 1920’s. The glasses gained in a short time enormous popularity and is considered the world’s #1 most recognized and iconic vintage design. It has been worn by models, teachers, radicals, students, businessmen, artists all over the world to emphasize their personality.

    THE PANTO DESIGN

    It had a unique, interesting and most geometric consistent design. To achieve the TRUE PANTO shape, it is critical to follow the strictest design rules of 6 different radiuses created by a compass, perfectly combined. The PantoGlasses model Oxford is the true panto – exactly the same design as when it was introduced in UK in the 1920’s. Other materials and models have been introduced in the market later and gained great popularity. However, unless the shape of the lenses is IDENTICAL to the original, the spectacles are panto-look-alikes, not the True Panto.

    THE GLASSES THAT SUITS EVERY FACE

    The magic of true panto, is that most every person who tries them on will find that it suits them – in addition to be cool. The reason for this is how the panto design is adapted to the human anatomy and the ocular shape. The frames is like a natural frame around the eyes. The top of the panto has the smooth flattening that follows the eyebrows, perfectly harmonized.

    PANTO FOR ALL

    Panto glasses are unique in the respect of having the ocular rounded shape that is optimal for both esthetical and size physical parameters. Due to shape and size, with a relatively small glasses-PD/center-distance, there are no other models of glasses that can provide lighter or finer center thickness or total weight than panto.

    PantoKids (Panto model Oxford 35-15) for high powers, especially hyperopic high plus values, are optimal quality glasses for kids from age 0-3 years with squinting and heavy refractions.

    Panto are the “student glasses” especially model Oxford, famous for decades.

    Panto is known as the iconic glasses for businessmen, artists, actors, radicals, intellectuals and fashion models.

    For practical purposes, the smaller size of panto, like model Oxford with or without curled temples, is preferred for use inside motorcycle helmets, gas masks, pilot helmets, for sports, etc.
