Seeing Things Differently: IOLLA x CLÒIMH Release a Limited-Edition Eyewear Collection Created from Bio-Based Materials

The IOLLA x CLÒIMH collection launches on Thursday 30th July and will be available at cloimh.com, iolla.com and in all IOLLA showrooms.


Created from bio-based eco acetate, the IOLLA x CLÒIMH limited-edition eyewear capsule unites two brands with a shared commitment to contemporary, considered design and more responsible materials.


Bringing together IOLLA’s expertise in contemporary eyewear with CLÒIMH’ s material-first approach, the collection demonstrates how lower-impact materials can elevate everyday essentials without compromising on quality or aesthetics.


Rooted in Scotland, both brands take their names from Scottish Gaelic: IOLLA, meaning ‘sight’, and CLÒIMH, meaning ‘wool’. These shared origins reflect an appreciation for heritage and a commitment to creating products with purpose.

“One of the things I enjoy most about running a brand is the opportunity to collaborate with like-minded, purpose-driven brands to create products that feel both authentic and unexpected. Working with IOLLA allowed us to bring together our shared values around considered design and responsible materials, while creating something that feels fresh for both of our communities.”

– Hollie Mercedes Peters, Co-Founder, CLÒIMH

Combining contemporary design, bio-based materials and a shared Scottish heritage, the collaboration reflects both brands’ commitment to creating thoughtfully designed products with lasting appeal. The limited edition collection launches on Thursday the 30th of July and will be available while stocks last at iolla.com, cloimh.com, and across all IOLLA showrooms.
