Rich colours, texture and intense detail characterise these gorgeous frames, which are created by laminating fabrics.
“There is a special skill in laminating fabrics for eyewear that I learnt from Dr. Rossi at Mazzuchelli in Italy in the 1980s. We worked together on developing a system of interlayer, to make sure the fabrics wouldn’t delaminate. This came after some experimentation and it was such a thrill when the system worked
out and it was stable,” Jono told mivision.
“The wonderful thing about using fabrics in eyewear is their colour and intensity – the texture is vibrant, and compared to a printed acetate, it just doesn’t feel the same in detail and depth of colour.”
Models 8302 and 8303 are available in strictly limited editions of 80 per colour. Contact Jono Hennessy (AUS) 02 9362 4941
