LUXURY
Designed by Uta Geyer with an accent on
aesthetic detail, all of the eyeglasses in
Lunettes Kollektion are painstakingly produced
with traditional methods. The frames start with
the highest quality Cellulose Acetate,
a natural raw material that is the speciality of
Italy’s Mazzucchelli, which has been plying its
craft since 1849. They are assembled by hand
at a small family-run factory in Northern Italy.
To house these beauties, exclusive handcrafted
boxes made from recycled materials have been
created by Berlin book bindery Ernst Liess,
est. 1869. The expertise of these production
partners helps provide a seamless melding
of old-fashioned quality and modern design,
which exemplifies the philosophy and values
of Lunettes Kollektion, and at the same time,
supports small businesses and minimizes the
brand’s carbon footprint.

fARE BELLA fIGURA
Any visitor to Italy quickly learns that Italians value what‘s easy on the eyes.
So it is no surprise that fare bella figura – or, make a good impression – is a dictum
we stumble across from Milan to Stromboli. The art of projecting a good image
includes civilized behavior to accompany that particularly attractive appearance –
ideally, the bella figura is not merely a mask, but a reflection of the person within.
