Matsuda Eyewear stands as a true testament to the marriage of unparalleled craftsmanship and avant-garde design. For over 50 years, Matsuda has redefined luxury eyewear, with each creation carefully hand-crafted into a piece of wearable art. Every detail, from the hinges to the intricate filigree patterns, is meticulously considered, transforming raw materials into masterful works of art. This is eyewear made not just for today but designed to stand the test of time.
A Legacy of Cultural Exploration
Founded by Mitsuhiro Matsuda in the 1960s, the brand was born from a deep desire to explore and challenge the boundaries of design. Inspired by Gothic architecture, Victorian art, and American jazz, Matsuda fused these Western influences with traditional Japanese aesthetics, creating pieces that evoke both the past and the future. This commitment to blending cultural heritage with cutting-edge design has made Matsuda a pioneer in the world of luxury eyewear.
The Art of Craftsmanship
What sets Matsuda apart is its dedication to precision and artistry. Each frame undergoes an extraordinary production process, crafted by hand in the renowned eyewear workshops of Sabae, Japan. With up to 250 meticulous steps, each frame requires the expertise of 13 highly skilled craftsmen, taking up to two years from concept to completion. This devotion to detail ensures that every pair of Matsuda glasses is a masterpiece, designed to be as durable as it is beautiful.
Masters of Metal and Acetate
Matsuda’s frames are sculpted from the finest materials available, from titanium and sterling silver to 18k solid gold. The metalwork is intricate and precise, achieved through techniques mastered over decades, setting Matsuda apart in a world of mass production. For its acetate frames, the brand uses exclusively organic, cotton-derived plastics, cured over months to create rich, durable colors that are unique to Matsuda.
Each frame is hand-finished by artisans who have apprenticed for over a decade, ensuring that every piece feels as luxurious as it looks, sculpted to last a lifetime.
