Japanese Eyewear Artisan Kaneko Optical Debuts in Singapore

Established in 1958 in Sabae, Japan, the birthplace of Japanese eyewear, Kaneko Optical is renowned for frames that combine artisanal craftsmanship with contemporary design. Each piece reflects a legacy of precision and innovation, offering timeless style with exceptional comfort.

The brand’s dedication to artistry is rooted in the traditional techniques of Sabae’s master craftsmen, where meticulous hand-finishing and refined detailing elevate every frame into a statement of understated elegance.

This spirit of craftsmanship comes to life in BACKSTAGE, Kaneko Optical’s integrated factory in Sabae. Here, each frame is shaped, polished and assembled under one roof, allowing every stage of production to be carefully overseen. The result is eyewear that embodies both artisanal tradition and modern precision.

Now open at Level 3 of Takashimaya Shopping Centre, Kaneko Optical unveils its first Singapore boutique, a space that invites visitors to experience the craftsmanship, heritage and quiet elegance at the heart of the brand.
