Lankaster : Argyle

Jacques Marie Mage is a maker of rare, collectible spectacles that combine historical motifs with precious materials, innovative production methods, and ethical business practices. Crafted with the highest level of manufacturing prowess and tested with the lowest tolerance standards possible, Jacques Marie Mage products are designed to last a lifetime.

This pair is adorned with precious metal hardware, custom tooled of either silver or gold composition. Each piece created by their Japanese manufacturer requires intricate tooling using the lost wax casting method followed by hand polishing techniques. In this ancient process dating back hundreds of years, each motif is cast in rough form, then polished by hand, and antiqued one piece at a time.

 “It's been one too many takes, but don't beat yourself up kid. In the search for truth and originality, there's strength in what runs silent, power in what runs deep. To always improve, find new ways of expression - now that's how you set the town on fire.”
