Suzanne Ciani Collection
Suzanne Ciani and VAVA have teamed up to develop a capsule collection of eyewear, inspired by Suzanne’s passion for the Buchla and quadraphonic soundscape exploration. The collaboration with the musician, pioneer of the 70’s electronic genre, is born to highlight the link between cultured electronic music and design. The collection, made in Germany, and crafted using sustainable, bio-based 3D printing techniques, features bold geometric elements that draw inspiration from Buchla’s intricate design and layout. Colors used in Buchla cords and connectors are incorporated in the design, and like in Buchla, they become eye-drawn elements connecting everything. The eyewear seamlessly blends sound and movement into its design, representing how Suzanne approaches music-making. Another key aspect of this collaboration is the use of mineral crystal lenses in the sunglasses. This reinforces the unique nature of the brand. VAVA believes that only the natural purity of the glass can ensure the best optical precision of a lens and the inalterability of its characteristics in time, along with its typical and unique transparency. VAVA uses exclusively Barberini lenses across all models in the acetate series. For many years, Barberini has been synonym of excellence in the optical glass sun lenses segment. Barberini was among the first companies in the field to achieve the UNI EN ISO 14001 Environmental Certification, meaning that all its manufacturing plants have zero-waste status.
