Optical Care

Oversized care for optical surfaces.

Our Optical Care collection uses the same oversized 43 × 30 cm optical-grade microfibre across the limited-edition designs.

What makes the Barroccu & Co cloth different from a small glasses cloth?

Each Barroccu & Co cloth measures 43 × 30 cm. The oversized format provides substantially more clean surface area, making it easier to move to a fresh part of the cloth rather than repeatedly wiping with an area already carrying facial oils and contamination.

What can I use the cloth to clean?

Our optical-grade microfibre is created for coated eyewear, sunglasses, camera lenses and other optical surfaces that benefit from careful cleaning.

Always follow any specialist care instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the lens, coating or optical equipment you are cleaning.

Can I use the cloth on coated lenses?

Yes. The optical-grade microfibre is intended for modern coated eyewear and camera lenses. Before wiping, make sure the cloth and optical surface are free from loose grit or abrasive debris.

Can I use the cloth dry?

Yes. For normal fingerprints, oils and light contamination, the cloth can be used dry with gentle pressure. For heavier contamination, a suitable lens-cleaning solution may be used where appropriate.

When should I wash my microfibre cloth?

Wash the cloth when contamination begins to affect its performance — for example, if it starts leaving faint streaks or redistributing oils rather than lifting them cleanly.

How should I wash the cloth?

Use lukewarm water and a small amount of mild, fragrance-free soap or detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, rinse thoroughly and allow the cloth to air dry.

For the complete hand-washing, machine-washing, drying and storage routine, read our Microfibre Cloth Care Guide.

How should I store the cloth between uses?

Allow the cloth to dry completely after washing, then store it in its Barroccu & Co pouch so it remains separate from loose dust, lint and everyday items that could contaminate the cleaning surface.

Does every individual cloth include a storage pouch?

Yes. Each individual Barroccu & Co Optical Care cloth is supplied with its own storage pouch.

Are all four cloth designs the same specification?

Yes. Ferns, Maple, Cacti and Blossom of Colour share the same oversized 43 × 30 cm optical-grade format. The artwork changes; the core Optical Care specification does not.

Optical Carry

What happens between periods of wear.

Optical Carry is the Barroccu & Co category concerned with the everyday moments when glasses or sunglasses are removed but remain part of your routine.

Optical Carry is not the same as long-term storage.

Cases and other storage methods have their own role. Optical Carry focuses on the shorter transition between wearing, removing, carrying and returning eyewear to wear.

What is Optical Carry?

Optical Carry is Barroccu & Co's approach to the periods between wearing eyewear. It considers the repeated everyday routine of wearing glasses or sunglasses, removing them, carrying them for a period and returning them to wear.

What is an eyewear necklace?

An eyewear necklace is worn around the neck and provides a central holder or loop into which eyewear can be placed after it has been removed.

The necklace itself can remain independent of the glasses while the eyewear is being worn.

How is an eyewear necklace different from a traditional glasses chain or cord?

A traditional glasses chain or cord normally attaches to both arms of the eyewear and remains connected while the glasses are worn or carried.

A holder-style eyewear necklace such as The Signature is worn independently. When the eyewear is removed, one temple arm is placed through the central Signature Loop.

Is Optical Carry another name for a glasses case?

No. Optical Carry and protective storage serve different needs. Optical Carry concerns the shorter periods between wearing eyewear, while a suitable case may be preferred when eyewear is being put away, transported or when fuller protection is required.

The Signature · Eyewear Necklace

The first Optical Carry edition.

The Signature is currently in production, with launch planned for November 2026 subject to final production and delivery timing.

What is The Signature Eyewear Necklace?

The Signature is Barroccu & Co's first Optical Carry eyewear necklace. It uses an all-black braided cord, rear sliding adjuster and central matte-black triangular Signature Loop.

How do I use The Signature?

Wear the necklace independently. When you remove your eyewear, place one temple arm through the central Signature Loop. When the eyewear is needed again, lift it from the loop and return it to wear.

Which glasses is The Signature suitable for?

Suitable for most standard-thickness sunglasses and optical eyewear, with the Signature Loop particularly suited to thicker acetate-style frames.

Suitability depends on the shape, thickness and contact points of the individual frame; very thin wire frames may be less suited.

What are The Signature's dimensions?

The Signature measures 46.5 cm overall. The tightly braided black nylon cord is 5 mm in diameter.

The Signature Loop measures 31 mm across its internal width and 38 mm in overall height.

How much does The Signature weigh?

The complete necklace weighs approximately 23.6 g, including the cord and hardware.

Can I adjust the length?

The main overall length is fixed at 46.5 cm. A single rear sliding adjuster allows the wearing position to be fine-tuned so you can alter where the Signature Loop sits against the body.

Remove eyewear from the loop before making an adjustment.

What is the Signature Loop?

The Signature Loop is the matte-black triangular opening at the centre of the necklace. It is the point through which one temple arm of compatible eyewear is placed during carrying.

Does The Signature attach to both arms of the glasses?

No. Unlike a traditional attached chain or cord, The Signature does not use two end attachments. The eyewear is placed through the single central Signature Loop after removal.

Does The Signature prevent glasses from falling or being lost?

No such guarantee is made. The Signature is a considered way to carry compatible eyewear between periods of wear; it is not described as an anti-loss, fall-prevention or protective device.

Does The Signature include a pouch?

Yes. The Signature includes a black Barroccu & Co drawstring storage pouch measuring approximately 8 × 10 cm.

How should I care for The Signature?

Remove the eyewear before storing the necklace and keep it flat in its pouch when it is not being used. Avoid prolonged immersion in water and avoid direct contact between the metal components and corrosive chemicals such as perfume or hairspray.

When will The Signature be available?

The Signature is currently in production. Launch is presently planned for November 2026, subject to final production and delivery timing.

Artwork & design

Optical care with a point of view.

The artwork is part of the object, not an afterthought.

Is the artwork on the Barroccu & Co cloths original?

Yes. The Optical Care designs use original artwork created for Barroccu & Co by visual artist Joann Randles.

Do the different designs perform differently?

No. The current cloth designs share the same 43 × 30 cm optical-grade format. Choose according to the artwork and colour you prefer; the underlying Optical Care specification remains the same.
