ANDRÉ OPTICAS CELEBRA ANO DE SUCESSO DE ALBANO JERÓNIMO

Para celebrar um ano de prestígio na carreira do Albano Jerónimo, marcado pelo Globo de Ouro de Melhor Ator de Cinema, a André Opticas e o ator português juntaram forças para a criação de uns óculos únicos, feitos à mão e à medida, totalmente bespoke no Atelier da marca portuguesa, no coração do Chiado.

Pautada por valores íntegros e elevados padrões de qualidade, a marca de renome portuguesa André Opticas distingue-se pela sua permanente aposta na formação profissional para garantir o melhor desempenho possível para todos os seus clientes com quem ambicionam desenvolver sempre uma relação próxima.
Este é mais um caso que reflete esta premissa. De cliente a amigo, Albâno Jerónimo construiu ao longo dos anos uma relação próxima e de confiança com a André Opticas que, para celebrar e acompanhar o ator neste ponto alto da sua carreira, dedicou-se à criação artesanal de um modelo exclusivo: Mr. A.J..

“Na permanente busca pela excelência e pelo apoio às artes, o nosso atelier desenvolveu o modelo Mr. A.J.

Pensado, desenhado e desenvolvido em exclusivo para o ator Albano Jerónimo, celebrando um ano singular na sua carreira, marcado pela sua nomeação em duas categorias na prestigiada Gala dos Globos de Ouro” – André Leal

Mr. A.J. é uma peça que nasceu de um trabalho de extrema perícia e atenção ao detalhe, onde a sobreposição de acetatos preto e cristal proporcionaram uma tridimensionalidade à peça. As varetas douradas, com os emblemas Family Affair, marca de bespoke eyewear que dá nome às criações únicas André Opticas, são o pormenor que remete para a convergência de valores entre o artista e a marca: ter sempre presente aqueles que nos são importantes e que nos permitem atingir os nossos objetivos pessoais e profissionais. Finalmente, as lentes degradé foram customizadas num tom púrpura, com intensidade de cor a variar entre os 75% e os 10%. Esta cor foi criada para prestar um tributo muito especial, uma vez que é associada à avidez, cobiça, intensidade – valores destacados no seu papel na série El Presidente – como também à loucura, confusão, perigo e complexidade – fazendo, desta vez, referência ao filme Restos do vento; uma clara homenagem aos papéis que o actor desempenha nos filmes que resultaram nas suas nomeações para Globo de Ouro.

Num modelo que presta tributo à 7.ª arte, os icónicos óculos de Robert DeNiro em Casino (Martin Scorsese 1995) e Elliott Gould em Ocean’s 11 (Steve Soderbergh 2001) inspiraram André Leal a desenhar esta peça onde a irreverência e a tradição se juntam para dar vida a uma criação que irá marcar, de forma indelével, este capítulo de prestígio na vida do ator Albano Jerónimo.

Assim, Mr. A.J. reflete não apenas a sua distinta personalidade, mas também o brilho de uma trajetória inigualável que merece ser celebrado e imortalizado com um modelo inspirado na 7.ª Arte.

KameManNen – Since1917

The history of KameManNen, which is said to be the oldest eyewear brand in Japan, began in 1917 at the city of Fukui, with a plating factory called “Kimura Seisakusho”. After the Second World War, this was developed to an eyewear factory based in Sabae and KameManNen was born. In 1981 KameManNen successfully used titanium, which is known for its durability and lightness to produce eyewear for the first time in the world, introducing Sabae’s high production quality to the world. The name KameManNen came from a Japanese proverb, “A crane lives a thousand years, a turtle ten thousand years” (Tsuru wa sennen, Kame wa mannen in Japanese. A proverb depicts longevity)”, which was the desire of the founder, Kikujiro Kimura. The brand aspires to continue the concept of KameManNen to pursue not only the beauty of the design itself, but also precise production of eyewear of the highest quality.

DITA – Emitter -One

Dita Emitter One is Dita´s next limited edition and will be available at André Opticas boutiques very soon.

Micro produced in a limited number of units, EMITTER-ONE speaks without saying a word through its details including high quality Japanese acetate frame, exposed custom pressed line temple tip plate, and titanium 5-barrel oversized hinge plate with exposed pressed line detail.

EMITTER-ONE shows design mastery by reaching beyond maximalism, pushing the limits and reaching tasteful overstatement.

EMITTER-ONE was born from embracing the negative space that surrounds, expanding the conscious mind to evolve in awareness to the overflow of complex details. EMITTER-ONE is an extension of this profound realization that gave way to its design and has joined the ranks of DITA’s Limited Edition frames.

DITA Flight 006 for André Opticas

We celebrate our 40th anniversary this year and among the many ways we have chosen to celebrate this moment was the production of a new limited series, with one of the most important brands of eyewear in the world, DITA, a brand that is a reference and needs no introduction.

With high-end glasses made in Japan, using only the finest and noblest materials, and which has millions of followers, DITA is the choice of countless personalities from the world music, cinema and arts.
Together with DITA, we re-edited FLIGHT 006, which became one of the biggest bestsellers ever when they were used by Tom Holland in the film Spider Man, Far From Home and Robert Downey Jr in the role of Iron Man in the avengers infiniy war, the famous Edith.

AndréOpticas X DITA Flight 006 is, however, even more special than DITA’s own Flight 006 of which only a few thousand are produced for the world market.
André Opticas FLIGHT 006 was executed in a special edition, 40 units, available only in André Opticas boutiques and in the online store.

Each piece has its own serial number and comes signed with the collaboration seal of the two brands. A unisex shape, built in Japanese Titanium, eyepieces in cotton acetate, titanium temples with end tips printed with the classic diamond pattern. A piece that is already a classic, turned into a true collector model.
