Smalto eyeglasses

Smalto eyewear is a brand extension of the Italian-French luxury fashion house, Francesco Smalto. Initially founded in Paris in 1962, the brand became legendary for its bespoke tailoring and high-end men's fashion.

While the brand originated in France under an Italian tailor, the eyewear collections are typically produced through licensing agreements with specialized optical manufacturers. These manufacturers often operate facilities across Europe (notably Italy or France) and Asia to meet global distribution needs. The brand remains a symbol of classic luxury and sophisticated style, transitioning from independent tailoring to a comprehensive lifestyle brand under various investment holdings over the decades.
