SIMI VALLEY, Calif.—Revolution Eyewear will launch the Millefiori collection of six exclusive optical styles featuring Venetian glass for women of all ages next month. Millefiori, a combination of the words “thousand” and “flower” in Italian, is a glasswork technique that creates decorative mosaic patterns, while Venetian indicates the glass was made in Murano, Italy.

In 1911, two brothers opened a small workshop in Murano for the production of Venetian glass beads. They passed down the craft to their descendants enabling the business to continue to grow. Today, the company is still operated by family members who produce their products by hand with extreme care, passion and precision. The company has become a world leader in the production of millefiori objects.

Revolution Eyewear has incorporated the intricate work of these very artisans into the Millefiori collection by adding glasswork to each design. Pictured is a rounded rectangular frame with a pink millefiori bead set into a hexagon accent, further emphasized by crystal embellishments, on the temples.
