Reykjavik Eyes: Cool Icelandic Design For Your Eyes
When the practical desire to minimise eyewear breakage and loose screws meets nature-inspired hues and feels, you get Reykjavik Eyes.
This gorgeous eyewear collection, designed in Iceland and handcrafted in Italy, pairs striking Japanese titanium with lush Mazzucchelli acetate (vibrant Italian plastic) in sleek silhouettes evoking Scandinavian minimalism, yet each frame’s subtly striking aesthetics completes your look like no other.
Designer Gunnar Gunnarsson grew up in his family’s optical business, where he spent summer holidays helping to repair glasses and replace lost screws, and wondering how frames can be better made so wearers would get the best value. In 2014, he debuted Reykjavik Eyes, lightweight frames with seamless finishes for ultimate comfort and performance. Proving that great engineering plays well with extraordinary style, each piece embraces the spirit of Icelandic landscapes, a sophisticated palette infused with vibrant hues, capturing the country’s iconic fjords, waterfalls, lava fields, glaciers and mountain ranges. Plus, no screws to deal with!
