HERITAGE

PAST
PRESENT
FUTURE

The extraordinary story of Ottica Rizzato began in 1948 when, at the age of twenty-four,
Bruno Rizzato made a decision that would not only change his life…
but also the lives of his children and future generations: he would become a creator of glasses!

At the beginning, Bruno Rizzato opened a small shop in Marano Vicentino, which was convict for the meeting with his future wife Valmina. Later, their youngest daughter, Loretta, decided to continue her father's work, bringing Ottica Rizzato to what it is today, together with her husband Gian Pietro and their son Gabriele. The spirit of Ottica Rizzato cannot ignore the relationship of our store with time.

Past, present, future: the past inspires the present and both create new opportunities for the future. Three times to reinvent something we know well, with the aim of always reaching new goals.

The spirit of initiative inherited from the founder Bruno Rizzato, the ongoing research and the desire to tell the art of independent high-end eyewear, are the basis of the philosophy that the Rizzato family expresses with the warmth and hospitality that only a family tradition can convey.

Our commitment to excellence means
believing in the essence of authentic beauty,
masterfully creating eyewear as works of art
