Eyewear handmade in Italy.
A frame reveals itself up close: in the hands that work it, the tools and the details that give it shape.
Our story of handmade eyewear begins here: with skilled hands, materials and care.
The value of eyewear handmade in Italy.
For Opificio Cadorino, handcrafted eyewear is about the relationship between materials, tools and the experience of the people making a frame. Acetate offers depth of colour and subtle shades worth exploring; the shaping of the frame defines its character.
Handwork goes alongside precision tools and manufacturing expertise. Explore the result in the front, side and three-quarter views available on product pages: the bridge, edges and temple junctions reveal more than a single photograph can.
Character is in the details.
Photographs of the collection to explore at your own pace: acetate, metal and small details that a full view cannot reveal.
Details from different models in the collection. Colours, components and finishes vary by model: refer to the product gallery for your chosen frame. Tap a photograph to enlarge it.
Più di sessanta passaggi. Un occhiale alla volta.
Craftsmanship is a way of seeing things. It means recognising the value of the time devoted to a frame and the care with which it takes shape.
The material
The depth of acetate, its shades and contrasts. A frame’s character begins with its material and the way it catches the light.
The gesture
Tools provide precision. Hands bring sensitivity and experience: a relationship at the heart of craftsmanship.
The detail
A curve, an edge, the point where the front meets the temple. Small details bring the whole together.
One frame at a time.
Handmade is more than an image. It is the attention devoted to an object, its shape and its character. A culture of making that Opificio Cadorino shares with the Italian manufacturer it works with.
That is why we also show our eyewear up close. Different views reveal proportions and details that a front view alone cannot show.
