Ralph Vaessen





Ralph Vaessen is a Dutch designer who studied Public Administration and worked for the government for over 15 years

He started to design eyewear early 2006 because he was looking for new frames for eyeglasses for himself, but he couldn’t find what he was looking for

An optician told him that he knew a small atelier that could produce a single set of frames if he could make a drawing of the shape he wanted

Ralph Vaessen, who was already looking for a career change, saw an opportunity and he decided to quit his job and to start a career as a designer of premium, exclusive and luxurious handcrafted natural horn eyewear

That Ralph Vaessen started a creative career as a designer at a later age did not come as a complete surprise: fashion, design, art, architecture and music had been his passion since he was a child

I love his story and of course I love his creations!
