Story and Legacy

The APOCALYPSO from the ITALIA Collection embodied Marcel’s tribute to the vitality, artistry, and resilience of Italy’s twenty regions. Its sculptural form captured the tension between innovation and tradition, reflecting the fiery creative spirit that defines the nation’s cultural legacy. Each pair celebrated individuality through craftsmanship, turning regional identity into wearable art.

Handcrafted in Italy using sustainable materials and Carl Zeiss optics, this edition was limited to 20 pieces per style. Conceived in Miami and brought to life by Italian artisans, every frame symbolized one region’s creative essence and historical depth. The Apocalypso remains a bold artifact within the Maison Marcel archive, honoring the philosophy of preservation over production and celebrating the enduring influence of Italian design.
