Designed in Paris, our glasses are handmade in the Jura, the historical birthplace of eyewear. They benefit from the know-how of our craftsmen who master the art of handcrafting. We are proud to contribute to the employment of 13 employees, including 4 young people under 30, who are ready to keep the French craft industry alive for some time to come!
The main stages of production
1
Cutting
and machining
The acetate plates are cut and machined to the dimensions of the faces and arms to obtain the desired shape.
2
Polishing
Sides and branches are then placed in barrels containing wood chips. A sanding stage that lasts an average of 96 hours.
3
Galbage
The faces are curved to give them a curved shape to fit the lenses.
4
Assembly
and finishes
The temples, which have been laser engraved, are assembled on the faces by means of hinges and various. Last step, the glasses are added before a polishing stroke.
