Reykjavik Eyes

Reykjavik Eyes draws on Icelandic landscapes and design ideas, bringing Nordic inspiration together with Italian craftsmanship. The label was devised by Icelandic frame designer Gunnar Gunnarsson, whose early experience repairing glasses helped foster an interest in how eyewear is constructed.

The brand highlights Japanese beta-titanium, valued for its lightness, durability and hypoallergenic properties. A screwless hinge construction, designed around folds and bends rather than conventional screws, is another distinctive feature. Frames are crafted by Italian artisans, and selected colours are applied by hand, with inspiration drawn from Icelandic scenery.

GUNNAR is a bold aviator-style frame that brings a classic outline into a contemporary context. Its combination of shape and colour illustrates the brand’s interest in making familiar forms more expressive. Across the range, clean geometry sits alongside vivid finishes and distinctive construction.

Its story connects Icelandic creative direction with Italian production, while specialist materials and screwless construction give the eyewear a technical character. Colour and construction work together, giving familiar silhouettes an individual and contemporary presence.
