The only door in Trieste
The only door in Trieste
behind which Cartier lives.
There are names that are not sold: they are safeguarded. In Piazza della Borsa, Giornalfoto is the city's sole Cartier stockist. A distinction that is not announced, but recognised in the boxwood corner and the rimless gold that awaits the right gaze.
- City exclusive. For eyewear, Cartier has a single address in Trieste.
- The jeweller's care. Every frame tried on with the calm of a jewellery salon.
- Bespoke. The ZEISS lens completes the object, down to the last millimetre.

A house that watches Trieste
from its windows.
Between the Canal Grande and Piazza Unità d'Italia, the largest seafront square in Europe, the Adriatic light and Central European elegance are our native atmosphere.
