Welcome to Studio Optyx – A Family-Owned Design House of Premium Wholesale Eyewear Since 1879
Studio Optyx is a family-owned global design and manufacturing house of independent, premium eyewear, committed to the craft of high-quality, handcrafted frames since 1879. Five generations of optical expertise inform every collection we release – from the first design sketch and material selection to fit, finishing and the after-sale support that eyecare professionals rely on.
We are home to four in-house wholesale eyewear brands – Erkers1879, NW77th, The Neighbors and Tocco Eyewear – and the distributor of Monoqool and ba&sh Eyewear. For independent opticians, optometrists and boutique optical retailers, that means one accountable partner for a differentiated frame board that patients will not find at every chain store.
