The Making of Your Bespoke Eyewear
In the past, French eyewear artisans were renowned for their craftsmanship and creative freedom. Each frame was designed with a wide range of shapes, proportions, and colours, carefully conceived to complement every face.
Today, with the globalisation and industrialisation of production, eyewear has become increasingly standardised, often offered in a single size per model. As a result, those whose facial morphology differs from the average are frequently left with limited options.
In response, we have chosen to return to the essence of fine eyewear by specialising in bespoke frames, designed to restore individuality and perfect fit.
A bespoke pair of glasses is more than an accessory. It is a unique creation, crafted exclusively for you, combining optical precision, facial measurements, personal style, and aesthetic preferences — all while reflecting contemporary elegance.
Our bespoke acetate frames are available from €399. They may be partially or fully reimbursed by your complementary health insurance, depending on your coverage.
Step 1 : Express Yourself
Everything begins with a meeting.
We take the time to get to know you, to understand your expectations, your desires, and also your concerns.
You are invited to bring your inspirations — sketches, photographs, or favourite frames — anything that reflects your personal style.
We consider every factor that contributes to your visual comfort: your optical needs, facial morphology, and any specific medical conditions that may need to be taken into account.
The optician–artisan then carries out a precise set of measurements: temporal width, pupillary distance, ear height, nasal bridge width, and more. These data allow us to create a truly unique frame, designed to follow and enhance the natural lines of your face.
From this foundation, your optician–artisan sketches the first designs of your future frame — a delicate balance between your vision, aesthetic harmony, and the artisanal expertise that guides each creation.
Step 2 : The prototype
Based on the precise measurements and the facial profile established during your initial appointment, our artisan optician crafts one or more prototypes of your future frame.
These prototypes allow you to visualise your eyewear directly on your face and to appreciate its volume, proportions, and overall aesthetic balance.
During the fitting, we engage with you to gather your impressions. If needed, the optician will refine certain details or incorporate new suggestions in order to further adjust the frame until it achieves a perfect harmony with both your facial structure and personal style.
Step 3 : Materials and colors
Choose the material and colour of your eyewear from an exceptional selection of approximately 1,000 shades.
Each tone is carefully curated to create a unique frame, elegant in design and perfectly aligned with your personal style.
Step 4 : The making
Following the various stages of design, our artisans begin crafting your bespoke frame in our Parisian workshops.
Each piece is handmade according to the thirty traditional stages of shaping and polishing, perpetuating the heritage and craftsmanship of French eyewear artisans.
Depending on the material and the complexity of the design, the manufacturing process generally requires between 8 and 20 hours of work.
The artisan accompanying you throughout the process remains personally responsible for your frame, ensuring that every detail is executed with absolute precision.
Once the frame is completed, we take the final measurements required for lens fitting.
Your lenses are then individually manufactured and cut to fit your frame perfectly, providing optimal visual comfort and impeccable aesthetics.
Step 5 : The last adjustments
Discover your bespoke eyewear and experience exceptional comfort through the final adjustments carefully carried out by our artisan.
Your frame is now ready to accompany you every day with style, elegance, and a perfect fit.
