ABOUT

Established in 1973 by Gianluigi Antognazza in the lakes valley of northern Italy, La Giardiniera is an independently owned Italian company, whose mission is delivering the finest eyewear, produced from the finest materials.

During over 50 years in business, our challenge has been constantly to develop fresh and innovative solutions, creating high-quality products to meet the needs of an international clientele attentive to both style and design criteria. Our customers get artisan Italian-made frames with industry leading optics technology at reasonable price.

All frames are developed with scrupulous attention to design and produced with advanced technology by highly trained personnel in Venegono Inferiore (Varese), an Italian region renewed for century-old tradition in the precision craftsmanship of high-quality eyewear.

We participate regularly in the international trade fairs in the eyewear sector and export our products around the world.
