Portrait – Charlotte

PORTRAIT CHARLOTTE medium cat eye round sunglasses

All Portrait glasses are the result of experimentation with shapes, materials, craftsmanship and artistic inspiration. The Glitch series, to which this specific Portrait sunglasses belongs, was inspired by the Video ART movement, where artistic innovation takes place within an intangible “place.” Glitch is an “error” that often becomes the element of beauty. Pixels, image fragmentation, noise and color bars are some of the assets of this fascinating artistic expression. Inspired by Video ART, Glitch is the only PORTRAIT ® series interpreted through a 2D material, thus stainless steel. The metal is enhanced by acetate and finishes derived from photo-cutting and galvanizing, in different colors and textures. Limited edition glasses of fine workmanship. The Charlotte model-dedicated to Elisabeth Charlotte Rist, better known as Pipilotti Rist-are cat-eye sunglasses that express experimentation, courage and breaking down conventional barriers by embracing color through the intervention of acetate pieces and colored lenses. Glitch and its inherent noise, is declined in a feminine form that is timeless yet contemporary, strong yet simple. Like all Portrait products, these sunglasses are made entirely by hand in Italy by true artisans who combine traditional craftsmanship with a high-tech manufacturer, pursuing the highest quality standards.
