Round One

Made in rounds, not in seasons.

A round is a fixed number of pairs, finished together and closed the day the last one leaves. Nothing is restocked and nothing is reissued. What follows is its own object, with its own case and its own detail at the temple.

A closed number

Round 1 is 200 pairs in all. When the last one leaves, the round closes and is not reopened.

Never repeated

The case, the charm and the lens belong to this round alone. What comes after will be beautiful. It will not be this.

One price, once

Each round opens above the one before it. Round 2 opens 15% higher. rivà does not discount and does not hold sales.

Round 2, before it opens.

The list is shown each round first, and keeps this round's price when the next one opens higher.

Rivà lusso

Named for the water's edge.

La riva is where the lake meets the town. The steps at Bellagio, the varnished hulls, the women who step off them without hurrying. The house is named for it, and every frame takes the name of a town along that shoreline.

The lusso is the same idea made small. Grained leather, a turn lock that actually turns, the rivà charm at the handle, an interior soft enough to take a lens bare. It comes with every pair, and it was never meant to live in a drawer.

The story of the lusso

UV400, every lens

Full ultraviolet protection as standard, in every shade.

Finished by hand

Acetate polished by hand, hardware weighted like jewellery.

The rivà lusso

The miniature bag, the pouch and the signature box, with every pair.

The maison

A life built on restraint.

rivà is built on a simple belief: the most luxurious thing you can wear is composure. Our frames are drawn from a century of Italian summers, and none of them will date.
