Art-Inspired Eyewear - Handcrafted in Italy
Who We Are - Our Story
Founded by two half-Venezuelan/Spanish siblings in Bassano del Grappa (Italy) in April 2016 with passion for authentic craftsmanship, contemporary design and supporting small enterprises with a meaningful vision, PORTRAIT Eyewear is the only brand in the eyewear market entirely influenced by contemporary art.
The shapes are the result of in-depth design research with experimentation at the heart of the product, strongly influenced by art-history movements and dedicated to iconic figures.
Coherent with the project’s art soul, the communication is based on the promotion of emerging artists in a fair cooperation that co- endorses both players; the brand and its fascinating testimonials.

Our product is entirely handmade in Italy by genuine artisans who combine traditional craftsmanship with a high-technology manufacturer, pursuing the highest quality standards.

Syd - Inspired in neo-futurism, this industrial mask-like fashion eyewear model has been dedicated to visual and conceptual futuristic artist Syd Mead whose designs recall a science fiction rationalism, so architecturally detailed they seem almost reproducible in the real world, other than his well-known sci-fi movies like Tron, Blade Runner and Alien.

Robert - An optical insta-classic mask that could certainly recall the original wayfarer but reminds us of a contemporary design character, through an undeniably trendy and strong identity that blends round and sharp lines with balance, just like Robert Montgomery’s art, minimal but meaningful and certainly of translucent poetry.
