JAPAN’S FINEST CRAFTSMANSHIP
Sato redefines excellence, crafting each frame in the renowned Fukui province of Japan. Every pair embodies expert craftsmanship, a passion for detail, and an unwavering pursuit of refinement. Sato is an uncompromising bridge between the past and the future, driven by a quest for finesse and beauty. Rooted in tradition, each piece showcases architectural innovation, enhancing the timeless art of eyewear.
FORGED IN PRECISION, BUILT TO ENDURE
Fukui, celebrated for its breathtaking natural landscapes, has long been a hub of craftsmanship, preserving its artisan skills for centuries. Every frame is carefully curated by dedicated craftsmen, transforming these sunglasses into more than just an accessory—each one is a lasting piece of jewelry. Sato selects only the finest materials, such as titanium and platinum, to create frames that highlight the wearer’s unique features. Known for its avant-garde approach, Japan brings forth the region’s finest savoir-faire.
Titanium or nothing
Japanese pure titanium is widely regarded as one of the most advanced and high-quality materials in eyewear production. Known for its incredible lightness, strength, and durability, pure titanium ensures maximum comfort while maintaining an elegant, slim design. Titanium’s exceptional resistance to corrosion, even in humid or saline environments, makes it a perfect choice for creating long-lasting frames. Its hypoallergenic properties further enhance its appeal, offering a safe and irritation-free experience for wearers with sensitive skin.
What sets Japanese titanium apart is the unparalleled precision and expertise involved in its manufacturing. Produced through meticulous techniques refined over decades, Japanese titanium combines cutting-edge technology with artisanal craftsmanship. This results in frames that not only provide superior structural integrity but also exhibit flawless finishes and sophisticated designs.
Heritage in Every Frame
Our manufacturing process honors traditional artisanal techniques, emphasizing the unmatched precision of handwork and the thoughtful selection of premium materials. Each step reflects our commitment to preserving the heritage of craftsmanship while delivering eyewear of exceptional quality.
At SATO, we don't just make eyewear – we craft experiences. And at the heart of that craftsmanship is Japanese acetate, a material that’s as timeless as it is groundbreaking. Sourced from premium cotton and wood pulp fibers, Japanese acetate is a luxury you can feel – soft, durable, and smooth to the touch.
What makes it special? The process. It's all about patience, precision, and craftsmanship. Every piece of acetate goes through a slow curing process, giving it the rich texture and incredible flexibility that allows us to design frames that fit like they were made just for you. Lightweight yet strong, these frames are built to last, and to look good while doing it.
But we don’t just settle for the basics. At SATO, we take Japanese acetate to the next level. We collaborate with artisans in Japan to create bold, unique color combinations and patterns that bring together tradition and innovation in a way that’s uniquely us. Each frame is hand-polished to perfection, ensuring that no detail is overlooked.
When you wear a pair of SATO glasses, you’re not just wearing eyewear – you’re wearing a piece of art, shaped by heritage, crafted with precision, and designed to turn heads. Because at SATO, it's not just about what you see – it's about how you see the world.
