A limited-edition born from the partnership between independent retailer Ottica Rizzato and Kaleos
Kaleos x Rizzato is a limited-edition sunglasses collaboration made by the Spanish design brand Kaleos and the Italian retailer Ottica Rizzato. The partnership was sparked when Ottica Rizzato won Kaleos' global contest for best window display, inspired by the Kaleos showroom in Barcelona. As a prize, Gabriele Cavedon of Ottica Rizzato collaborated with Kaleos’ creative team, resulting in the creation of just ten exclusive, limited sunglasses. “We wanted to create not just a pair of sunglasses, but an experience, a story to wear. Kaleos x Rizzato represents the perfect synthesis of independent design, craftsmanship, and a passion for details.” explains Gabriele Cavedon.
The design features a classic unisex shape with bold colors inspired by Gaudí’s trencadís mosaics, reflecting the spirit of Barcelona. Each pair comes with a custom case and a curated mini-guide to the Spanish city. Available only at Ottica Rizzato’s store and website, the collection blends elegance, craftsmanship, and a celebration of creative identity, marking a significant achievement for Ottica Rizzato in the global eyewear scene.
