Masahiro Maruyama
Beautiful Lines. A form born out of raising a question to perfection.
All MASAHIROMARUYAMA frames are manufactured in Fukui prefecture, Japan. The Sabae City factory where production occurs has deep roots in eyewear craftsmanship spanning over a century. Skilled artisans bring asymmetrical designs to life through methods that surpass computerized alternatives.
Titanium frames undergo multiple stages: mold creation, pressing, brazing, polishing, and surface finishing before assembly. The material’s lightweight nature combined with strength demands advanced processing techniques. Plastic frames utilize Mazzucchelli’s acetate, hand-filled by craftsmen to ensure comfortable fit and gradual thickness transitions in asymmetric designs, followed by buffing and polishing.
