A little bit bout Optyl

Made famous on the eighties and patented by the Optyl Group of companies, they produces the brand such as Christian Dior, Viennaline, Terri Brogan, Dunhill, Paloma Picasso, Playboy etc. Optyl is a cast-moulded plastic, this time from the EPOXY family (like Araldite). It is a thermosetting plastic. The material is hard enough to not use any metal frame to support. It is also hypo-alleric so ideal for patients with a nickel sensitivity.
