Calyx is a reinterpretation of an iconic André Opticas design, originally created for the Visionaries video, in celebration of the brand's 40th anniversary. . With an oversized front in transparent acetate, these glasses inspired by nature, uniqueness and the most organic shapes, were the result of a 100% Portuguese collaboration. Adorned with the golden flowers immortalized in the iconic Jasmine earrings, this model of glasses is a work of art that combines the sophistication and delicacy of jewelry with the functionality and style of luxury optics.

Each piece is a tribute to artisanal mastery, where every detail is carefully thought out and executed. The result is a luxury accessory that transcends mere utility, becoming a statement of style and elegance, which gives a unique signature and reflects each person's personality.

“This is a collaboration very much based on the symbiosis between the usual functionality and style of our brand and the refined and elegant touch so characteristic of Cata Vassalo. In addition to guaranteeing a unique and unmistakable style, this piece reflects our commitment to combining innovation with the tradition of a brand consolidated in the market for several years”, says André Leal, C.E.O. from the Portuguese brand.

“At Cata Vassalo we see and feel accessories like crowns that should empower and represent those who wear them. With André Opticas, a brand that we admire and with which we share values, we wanted to design a crown in the shape of glasses. We want it to be a statement piece that marks whoever wears it and also marks the beginning of this friendship and collaboration between our brands”, highlights Catarina Vassalo, founder and designer of Cata Vassalo.
