Inside Mazzucchelli Acetate: The Secret ingredient to Sustainable Luxury in Eyewear

Luxury and sustainability may seem like opposing forces, but in the world of eyewear, they find perfect harmony in Mazzucchelli acetate. This remarkable material, born from the earth and crafted with meticulous care, has been a driving force in the eyewear industry since 1849. 

Initially, Mazzucchelli produced combs and buttons from horn, bone, and tortoiseshell, the Italian company shifted its focus in the 20th century to celluloid and acetate, a natural-based plastic derived from cotton and wood pulp. Acetate's durability, flexibility, and aesthetic versatility make it a preferred material for premium eyewear. Mazzucchelli has meticulously refined its production processes, pioneering colourful and patterned designs in high-quality acetate sheets.

Renowned for its diverse hues and textures, Mazzucchelli acetate is lightweight, comfortable, and hypoallergenic, making it perfect for eyewear worn for extended periods.
