The brand—which first made a name for itself via its thoughtfully handcrafted eyewear— is a living love letter to Bardon’s grandmother, Rita. She’s in its overarching essence: the creation of heirloom treasures with intimate character, just as she is its smallest details. The label has since grown to include leather satchels, wool ties, custom handkerchiefs and an organic essential oil fragrance, the latter of which combines notes of whiskey, tobacco and rose as homage to Rita’s favorite pastime: enjoying a whiskey-water and cigarette while tending to her rose garden. From his brand to his home to his personal nature, Bardon has a natural way of turning life into poetry.
