JDO EYEWEAR APPOINTS THE HIVE STUDIO

The Hive Studio is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Italian eyewear design house and manufacturer, JDO Eyewear, producers of the renowned handcrafted frame collection, Jacques Durand. The PR agency will be responsible for trade media relations in Europe and worldwide for JDO from July 2025, as they prepare for the re-launch of their newly acquired label, HAPTER at SILMO Paris in September this year.

Since 2012 and its creation in Montecchio near Vicenza, Italy, JDO Eyewear has become a reference in the eyewear industry for the creation of fine-quality, handcrafted, timeless frames produced with a strict commitment to a sustainable, ethical, fully transparent supply chain.

The location of JDO near Vicenza has afforded them a completely unique position with regard to jewellery expertise applied to eyewear and collaboration with some of the most highly skilled Italian artisans trained as goldsmiths.

Today JDO is directed by two generations of the Concato family, Domenico (CEO), and Stefania, and their daughters, Emma, Clara and Alice. The family also owns the prestigious independent retail chain, Punto Ottico Humaneyes, a reference in international optical retailing at the very highest level, today operating with six stores in Italy, two in the US and two locations most recently opened in Serbia.
