The Chrome Hearts Precious Metals Collection Exclusively at Erker's Fine Eyewear
If you thought Chrome Hearts would shy away from the most precious metals on the planet. THINK AGAIN!!!!!
Both Silver and gold are considered precious metals which are regulated by the guidlines of the Federal Trade Commission. Gold processes must also comply with the rules set forth by the FTC
Pure Silver is too soft for most uses. so it is mixed with alloys for added strength and durability. Most of the Chrome Hearts decors are made of cast .925 sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver and 7.5% base metal. Each piece requires intricate tooling and is made by the Chrome Hearts silversmiths individually using the lost wax casting method.
In this ancient process dating back hundreds of years, each decor or motif is cast in rough form, then polished by hand, and antiqued one piece at a time.
Fronts on Chrome Hearts 12K gold frames are gold filled in a process where high heat and pressure are used to bond a thick layer of solid gold to a base metal. The total gold content for an item classified as gold filled must equal 1/20th of teh total weight of the finished product. It is resistant to tarnishing , like solid gold, and does not flake off, rub off, or change colors. Gold filled products have long term wear durability without the added weight of solid gold.
Just another incredible addition to the Chrome Hearts collection, some of the most luxurious metals in the world and some of the best ideas in the world incorporated on eyewear. Chrome Hearts a cut above the rest found exclusively in St. Louis at Erkers in Ladue. By far one of the most stunning collections ever created.

The Chrome Hearts Premium Metal Collection Exclusively at Erker's Fine Eyewear
When Chrome Hearts created their metal collection, they used only the best materials to create their eyewear. Chrome Hearts uses three of the most expensive and most durable metals when it comes to manufacturing their frames.
Using Titanium, Copper Berylium and Magnesium Chrome Hearts are has found the balance of durability and pure luxury. Titanium is as strong as some steels, and as the highest strength to weight ratio of any metal. Oversize metal styles benefit from the exceptionally strong properties of titanium without the weight. Titanium is valued for its lightweight, durable, hypo-allergenic, and non-corrosive properties.
If titanium wasn't enough Chrome Hearts surpasses all expectations with the use of Copper Beryllium. This incredible metal is used for designs where frame flexibility is required. The metal is very lightweight, which contributes to the overall comfort for the wearer. It is inherently resistant to corrosion and tarnishing, making it suitable for weares with high skin acidity.
Last, but for sure not least, Chrome Hearts uses one of the most unstable metals in the world. Magnesium has historically been used in airplane, aeropsace, missle and ammunition construction. The lightweight property of the metal allows thickness without added weight. Magnesium also has excellent machinability, making it exceptionally versatile.

New Chrome Hearts Wood Exclusively at Erker's Fine Eyewear
The first Chrome Hearts collection was released in 2002 after 19 months of intensive design and research. No detail or cost was spared in the development of the collection. The acutely detailed tooling required to produce each piece, in addition to luxurious and rare materials, makes the Chrome Hearts collection one of the most expensive eyewear collections ever produced.
Chrome Hearts wood temples are manufactured using a special process where seven ultra thin layers of wood are cross-grain laminated together producing an extremely strong laminated sheet. The temples are then cut from the sheet stock and finished by hand. In the final step the temples are coated with a non-allergenic lacquer and again polished by hand. The finishing process is repeated six times in order to obtain the high quality seen in all Chrome Hearts wood temples. This is the most extensive process in the market today.
Chrome Hearts uses three types of exotic woods on its frames, Macassar Ebony, Brazilian Mahogany and Albino Madrone. Whether it is the densest, most colorful, smoothest, and strongest Chrome Hearts has choosen an elite group of wood products that is sure to outlast any other product on the market.
In the final stages of the wood process Chrome Hearts uses an ultra-sensitive laser that carves the intricate designs one temple at a time. Chrome Hearts was the first eyewear in the world to feature laser engravings on the sides of wood temples.
Finally the select few of Chrome Hearts are laser engraved with Chrome Hearts designs that are inlaid with black or white mother of pearl. In addition to the mother of pearl inlay, Chrome Hearts also uses a process called "intaglio" where an enamel paste made from mother of pearl is deposited into the tiny laser reliefs, and then polished to a brillant luster, creating a very special and unique effect.
