The motif is the sunglasses worn by the main character in the 70’s movie “Taxi Driver”. The shape of the Japanese roof tiles of an early Showa-era building our design team happened to see is boldly used for the endpiece and temples.
The design source for the temples and acetate temple tips is historical American-made eyeglasses from the 60’s.

EYEVAN 7285: Eyewear that does not have technical restrictions in the manufacturing process is created with the combination of traditional manufacturing methods and new technologies with out-of-the-box thinking. Unique identity is established through beautiful details and highly sophisticated designs. Frames are carefully created in detail by hand work of highly skilled artisans in the city of Sabae, and finished pieces after about 400 processes of work can be said to be modern craftwork rather than industrial product.
