We carry Lowercase for patients who want their glasses to tell a story — of craftsmanship, creativity, and individuality. It’s eyewear that feels as unique as the people who wear it.
A Brooklyn-Born Story
Founded in 2016 in New York City by Gerard Masci, Lowercase was built on the idea that eyewear should be as expressive as the city it was born in. With a workshop in Brooklyn, Lowercase emphasizes small-batch production, vintage inspiration, and handcrafted detail. In 2023, Lowercase became part of the House of MODO, ensuring its distinct New York DNA continues to thrive.
Handmade in New York
Every Lowercase frame is cut, shaped, and polished by artisans in Brooklyn, going through more than 30 steps of hand-finishing. The focus is on quality over quantity, with small runs that give each frame a sense of individuality.
Materials That Matter
- Italian and Japanese acetates in bold colours
- Premium hinges and handcrafted detailing
- Small-batch finishes for uniqueness
What Makes Lowercase Unique
Lowercase blends vintage-inspired shapes with bold colors and playful creativity. Their frames reflect New York’s energy — expressive, daring, and authentic. Each design feels like a piece of wearable art, rather than mass-produced eyewear.
