I've had the above-referenced frame for two years and the frame is chipping! (cranberry/silver metallic frame). As much as I paid for them, I thought they'd last longer. I called the store where I purchased them and was advised they only have a one-year guarantee. How sad; but, of course, they're "Made in China" - I suppose that's what I deserve for buying non-American. Too bad; I love the frame. I WON'T be buying their frames again and I don't recommend them. I used to be an Optician; our office always accommodated our patients - discount on the same frame (THEY worked it out with the manufacturer), ordered same frame or another frame at a reduced rate (there is a HUGE mark up in eye frames). Sounds like manufacturers in China don't really care if their products last. Perhaps the product should be made in Italy as the name infers. Italians make great products and stand behind them (shoes!) I'm very disappointed.
