THE BRAND STORY
Sestini Eyewear, founded in 2020 by Carlo Sestini, focuses on sunglasses as more than just accessories, allowing the wearer to observe their surroundings. Despite Carlo spending time abroad, Sestini is deeply rooted in his native Italy and its unique essence. The brand combines timeless elegance with Italian elegance, using exceptional materials, impeccable detail, and the highest level of craftsmanship. Sestini Eyewear aims to share Sestini’s vision and create a tangible legacy.
HANDCRAFTED IN ITALY
Sestini sunglasses are crafted to preserve Italian heritage and values through slow and thoughtful artisanship. They are designed to be a future heirloom, enduring the test of time and trends. Sestini prioritizes the protection of its heritage, ensuring better products for customers and production techniques for future generations. The sunglasses are made with Carl Zeiss lenses, known for their superior UV protection and high-performing vision, ensuring they provide the best protection for the eyes in today’s sensory overload. Sestini Eyewear prioritizes aesthetics and quality over fast fashion.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sestini is committed to a circular economy by 2028, prioritizing sustainability and environmental impact in its design process. Each model is a limited edition, available in three colours and made in limited quantities. Sestini’s sunglasses pouch, lens-cleaning cloth, and written materials are made from recycled materials. They will plant one tree for every pair of sunglasses sold through One Tree Planted, limiting their carbon footprint. Sestini continuously researches and develops new ways to produce and sell sunglasses, adhering to modern sustainable principles. The company produces all sunglasses in a unique Italian atelier, sourcing all elements from its sourcing process. Respecting tradition and embracing slow luxury are the biggest sustainable steps Sestini could have taken.
