    The Campaign — Shot in the highlands of Iceland

    Born in the caldera.

    Every KALDERA frame begins as a sketch made at the edge of a volcano. We study how lava folds, how ash settles, how obsidian catches the light. Then we carve it, slowly, by hand, into something you can wear.

    “Glasses shouldn’t disappear on your face. They should make people look twice.”

    The Craft — Handcrafted in Italy

    Forty steps from stone to frame.

    Every hinge is cast in titanium, every temple tip shaped by hand to rest exactly where it should.

      Sketch

      Forms drawn from lava flows, ash dunes and fractured rock, collected on field trips to the volcanoes of Iceland and Sicily.

    2. 02

      Carve

      Blocks of Italian acetate, a plant-based material that polishes like glass, are cut and shaped over 14 days. Each temple is fitted to a titanium core by hand.

      Polish

      Rolled in a drum for 72 hours, then hand-finished until the surface shines like obsidian. Every frame is numbered.

    Before you buy

    Good to know.

    Do you ship internationally?

    Yes. We ship to more than 90 countries, and orders over $200 ship free. Most destinations receive their frames in 3–5 business days.

    Can I get prescription lenses?

    Yes. Every optical frame, and most sunglasses, can be fitted with single-vision or progressive prescription lenses at checkout.

    What if the frames don’t fit?

    Return unworn frames within 30 days for a full refund, or exchange them for another size at no cost.

    How does a limited drop work?

    Each drop is capped. Blue Fire is 300 pieces, and every frame is numbered. When a drop sells out, it does not come back.

    What does the warranty cover?

    Two years against manufacturing defects, including hinges and finish. Repairs are free.
