...O there was
nothing left
but to believe
in ourselves
and to try
to make our
own brand
more known.”
The number of customers grew slowly which result-
ed into introducing our eyewear to a number of major
brands. I was invited by HermEs , LVMH as Dior and
Louis Vuitton and Kering as Gucci and Bottega Veneta.
All were impressed by our work but as so often: wrong
place and wrong time. Hermès had just started their
furniture department and had no intention to do eye-
wear and the other chose mass-production because of
the profit.
