Gioconda Giannini Glasses Museum

The Gioconda Giannini Glasses Museum contains a collection of frames and optical devices spanning multiple centuries of eyewear development and manufacturing techniques.

Founded in 1996, the museum emerged from Gioconda Giannini's dedication to preserve the history of optical instruments and eyewear design through generations.

The museum demonstrates the connection between optical necessity and fashion trends through exhibits displaying frames from different periods and social contexts.

Visitors access the museum through guided tours that explain the technical aspects of lens manufacturing and frame construction throughout different historical periods.

The collection includes examples of early vision correction devices, ranging from primitive magnifying glasses to modern prescription eyewear manufacturing methods.
