The 1940s marked a significant period in the historical evolution of eyewear. It was the beginning of an era where eyewear was designed not just for its functionality, but as an essential fashion accessory or accoutrement. Blending functionality with style, designers began to put more emphasis on eyewear designs, setting the stage for today’s diverse and fashion-forward eyewear industry. Influence from that era remains evident in modern eyewear designs, a homage to the timelessness of vintage styles, materials, and the innovative spirit of that epoch.
Such is the inspiration behind Johnny X, a redesigned version of “the Johnny” collection from our archives which pays homage to its iconic vintage origins of ‘1940s’ France. Exuding timeless elegance and style, this limited edition eyewear is meticulously handcrafted in Italy using premium quality Mazzucchelli acetate. With delicately streamlined beveled edges and bold aesthetics characterized by silver spear rivets and ribbed core wire, it is a true symbolism of timelessness and elegance. A milestone marker for our decade long commitment to sartorial inspiration, hence a befitting moniker - ‘X’.
