As proud advocates of well-made and well-designed eyewear, Jacques Marie Mage have had a place on Seen Opticians’ shelves for a while now. Over the last ten years or so they’ve almost singlehandedly changed the luxury eyewear game. The coveting of Japanese craftsmanship, the production of detail-rich pieces interwoven with stories and history, the move towards timeless design - the Hollywood-based brand has been hugely influential.
Notoriously dedicated, JMM founder Jerome Mage is hard to pin down, but at the end of last year, all the stars aligned and Seen Opticians’ Head Honcho, Tareq managed to sit-down and grab a drink with him. In the half-hour chat, the pair covered a lot of ground, from Paris to Japan to the importance of story in objects to what it takes to create transformative, handcrafted glasses and sunglasses.
Whether you’re already a fan of JMM or you want to learn more, you’re in for a treat. Watch or read the entire conversation below.
