Where Passion and Creativity Unite in Eyewear

In the realm of eyewear, where tradition often meets conformity, Clément Lunetier emerges as a breath of fresh air, a brand born out of the shared passion and creativity of two visionaries, Benjamin Decarreau and Vincent Flachaire. Disenchanted with the predictability of traditional eyewear and major brands, they set out on a mission to craft iconoclastic, customizable models that embody elegance and stay true to their core values.

The genesis of Clément Lunetier can be traced back to countless conversations fueled by a shared love for eyewear and a mutual fascination with the art of creation. The result is a collection of glasses meticulously designed for each individual, a testament to the brand's commitment to uniqueness.

In their Strasbourg workshop, every frame becomes a canvas for originality, blending diverse materials such as wood and metal into a harmonious symphony of craftsmanship. The process is a labor of love, requiring years to re-learn ancestral gestures and refine their artisanal skills, always with an unwavering commitment to excellence.

The lightweight glasses designed for Cercle epitomize Clément Lunetier's dedication to both form and function. Each pair is thoughtfully crafted to complement the lines and curves of the face, ensuring not only aesthetic appeal but also unparalleled comfort. This attention to detail extends to the production process, where each model is created on demand, making every pair a bearer of meaning, aesthetics, and originality.

At Clément Lunetier, the glasses are more than accessories; they are individual expressions of artistry. With a commitment to breaking free from the ordinary and embracing the extraordinary, Benjamin Decarreau and Vincent Flachaire invite you to explore a world where eyewear is not just worn but experienced – a world where every model tells a unique story of passion, aesthetics, and innovation. Elevate your eyewear game with Clément Lunetier, where each frame is a masterpiece waiting to be unveiled.

Timeless Elegance and Artisan Craftsmanship in Eyewear

In a world saturated with mass-produced accessories, there's a unique charm that comes with owning something meticulously crafted by skilled artisans. Kirk & Kirk, a beacon of sophistication in the eyewear industry, seamlessly blends heritage, craftsmanship, and modern design to create distinctive and lightweight frames that transcend mere fashion – they are a statement of individuality.

The story of Kirk & Kirk begins with a love story. Founders Karen and Jason Kirk, happily married since 1993, share not only a deep bond but also a passion for creating eyewear that goes beyond the ordinary. Karen, with a background in graphic design, initially made her mark in the bustling design scene of Soho, London. However, it was only after meeting Jason that her creative journey took a fascinating turn towards the world of eyewear.

Jason, with a background in French studies and a career in sales and marketing for L'Oreal, stumbled upon a treasure trove of 1950s and 1960s-inspired glasses in his father's optical practice. This discovery sparked a journey that would eventually lead to the birth of Kirk & Kirk. The roots of optical expertise run deep in Jason's family – his grandfather, Sidney, and great uncle, Percy, laid the foundation with Kirk Brothers in the 1920s, pioneering the delivery of glasses to opticians. The legacy continued with Jason's father, Neville, who furthered the family tradition in optics.

In the heart of London, Kirk Brothers' offices witnessed the inception of a vision that would come to life through generations. Frames and lenses were not just sold on the ground floor; they were meticulously crafted from start to finish on the upper levels. This rich heritage is the backbone of Kirk & Kirk, a brand that seamlessly weaves history into every pair of eyeglasses.

The partnership between Karen and Jason is the epitome of synergy. Karen's creative prowess, honed in the dynamic world of design, complements Jason's profound optical experience. Together, they have created a brand that stands as a testament to the harmonious blend of artistic ingenuity and technical expertise.

Located in the picturesque coastal town of Brighton on the South Coast of England, Kirk & Kirk infuses a touch of the serene seaside into their creations. The frames, crafted from bespoke Italian acrylic, are a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and luxury. Each pair is meticulously handmade in France, a process that ensures not only precision but also an unmistakable touch of artisanal elegance.

Kirk & Kirk's eyewear is more than just a functional accessory; it's a piece of art that tells a story. From the heritage-rich roots in London to the serene craftsmanship in the coastal town of Brighton, every frame is a journey through time and a celebration of individuality. Elevate your eyewear experience with Kirk & Kirk – where timeless elegance meets artisan craftsmanship.
