Paloceras
eyewear brand founded in 2022
Paloceras is an independent European eyewear brand founded in 2022 by Finnish designer Mika Matikainen and Canadian designer Alexis Perron-Corriveau. The company is headquartered in Helsinki, with a design studio in Lisbon and an atelier in London.
History
Originating in the Geneva region and later headquartered in Helsinki, the company was founded in 2022 after Matikainen and Perron-Corriveau met while studying at ECAL in Switzerland.
In 2025, the brand opened a MicroFactory in Helsinki for 3D-printed eyewear production, supported by a grant from the Finnish government. The facility combines digital design, 3D printing and hand finishing.
In January 2026, Paloceras designed eyewear for Robert Wun's Spring–Summer 2026 haute couture presentation in Paris. Vogue Italia noted that the brand was involved from the early creative stages of the collection, with the eyewear conceived as an integral part of the looks. The pieces were also documented in runway coverage by WWD.
In March 2026, the brand won the Best Sun Style – Independent category at the NOW Awards during Vision Expo in Orlando, Florida.
In 2025, Paloceras was featured in fashion and design media including Numéro Switzerland, Vogue Portugal and the Financial Times.
Collections
The first collection, Pebble, featured rounded acetate frames noted for their inflated contours and colour compositions reminiscent of sculpted glass.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Paloceras” as eyewear brand founded in 2022. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as eyewear brand founded in 2022. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q138005591. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2022, 2025 and 2026.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
