EPOS

THE EPOS STORY

“My grandfather dressed, with great success, the Milanese gentry who attended the elite clubs and theatres in the city, including ‘Scala’. He was proud to design and create a certain timeless elegance for his clients. One day he looked at a gentleman who had just come out of a tailor’s changing room, dressed in an elegant suit, but wearing a charming pair of spectacles. He was a famous English archaeologist who loved Greek culture, myth and epic tales of the Olympic Gods… … So, it was that evening, sitting at his writing desk at home that my grandfather started to design spectacle frames of harmonious and elegant forms in colours both frugal and natural; spectacles just as his tailored suits, that would have made him proud in creating ‘timeless’ objects. He did not have the opportunity to complete that project, which I was fortunate enough to find and which I named “EPOS” in memory of his inspiring and distinguished English archaeologist. Epos is a collection of timeless spectacles with legendary names.”
