100percent

An eyeglass case that looks like a block of ice – and feels exactly like one. ICED AGED by 100percent: translucent elastomer with deliberately visible flow-line textures that replicate the appearance of ancient, permanently frozen ice.

ICED is an eyeglass case made from elastomer, steel and a magnetic closure, born from a single idea: glasses should look as if they were trapped inside a block of ice. The AGED variant goes one step further – the flow patterns of the elastomer that form during the moulding process were deliberately left visible. The result: a surface of crack lines, cloudiness and inner movement, like ice that has been frozen for a very long time. Designed by 100percent, made in Japan.

Elastomer & Steel & Magnet · W 168 × D 68 × H 35 mm · Made in Japan

The material is elastomer – a thermoplastic material that feels like soft rubber yet can be moulded with precision. The tactile quality of ICED is deliberately unique: the surface can be identified by touch alone, even when searching inside a bag without looking. No other eyeglass case feels like this.

ICED AGED is the more expressive of the two ICED variants. During the injection-moulding process for thermoplastic materials, flow lines form naturally – they are normally treated as production defects and hidden. 100percent deliberately left these lines visible, creating the appearance of "永久氷結" – permanently frozen ice that shows its inner movement. The result varies subtly from piece to piece – no two AGED are identical.

The closure is magnetic – one touch is all it takes to secure the glasses. The semi-transparent elastomer allows a visual check without opening: you can see if the glasses are inside. And placed on a desk or bedside table with glasses inside, ICED becomes a display object unlike anything else in any drawer.

Each ICED ships with one of five different glasses-design films enclosed inside the case – a small detail that turns unboxing into a moment of surprise.

Which frame sizes fit inside ICED?

ICED has enough space for standard eyeglass frames. The outer dimensions are W 168 × D 68 × H 35 mm. Very large or unusually shaped frames (e.g. oversized sunglasses) should be checked against these dimensions beforehand.

What makes the AGED variant different from CLEAR?

In AGED, the flow lines that form in the elastomer during the moulding process were deliberately left visible. This creates a surface with crack lines, cloudiness and inner movement – like ice that has been frozen for a very long time. CLEAR is cleaner and more uniform; AGED has a more vivid, one-of-a-kind texture. Each AGED piece is subtly individual due to this natural variation.

Does elastomer actually protect the glasses?

Yes. Elastomer is a flexible, impact-absorbing material – it gives slightly and cushions knocks without clamping the glasses. The magnetic closure keeps the case securely shut; the height of 35 mm protects even slim, sensitive lenses.

What are the glasses-design films that come with ICED?

Each ICED ships with one of five glasses-design films enclosed inside the case. The film is optional – it can be left inside as a decorative element, or removed. Which of the five designs you receive is a small surprise at unboxing.

Can ICED be used for things other than glasses?

The dimensions also fit reading pens, ballpoint pens or small accessories – but ICED is designed and optimised for glasses. Many users leave it on their bedside table or desk with glasses inside – it is an everyday object that works as a display piece.

How do I care for ICED?

Elastomer is low maintenance: wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents or solvents as these can damage the surface. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent discolouration of the translucent material.

Is ICED suitable as a gift?

A gift for glasses wearers who appreciate considered design – especially designers, architects, photographers and anyone who doesn’t want an ordinary glasses case. ICED is an object that immediately explains why it was given as a gift. The enclosed glasses-design film adds a small moment of delight at unboxing.
