Ottica San Maurilio

Since 1979, Ottica San Maurilio has been the reference boutique for those seeking excellence in artisanal eyewear and independent design in the center of Milan. Located in the heart of the historic 5 Vie district, our boutique is a true institution for those who desire distinctive eyeglasses and sunglasses, selected from the finest creative talents around the world. 

We carefully select every frame and accessory to enhance the identity of the 

person who wears them. An authentic style proposal, far from the commercial logic of industrial eyewear. 

Entering our boutique on Via San Maurilio, in the heart of the prestigious 5 Vie district, means stepping into a warm and welcoming Milanese living room. In this unique space, warmed by a real wood-burning fireplace, the charm of historic furnishings — such as the old typographer’s drawer cabinet displaying our exclusive collections and the 1920 trial-lens cabinet — blends harmoniously with the technology of contemporary optics. 

We believe that eyewear is not merely an accessory, but an extension of personality. For this reason, we dedicate ourselves to a constant search for unique pieces handmade by independent international designers: our selection ranges from the rigor of classic shapes to frames with bold, creative aesthetics. 

Our exclusive selection focuses on unconventional materials — such as natural horn, wood, silver, copper, aluminum, bio-acetate, and 3D printing — offering refined frames for those who choose originality and discretion as the distinctive mark of their style.
