AVAILABLE IN 3 COLORS
Inimitable elegance and innovation intermingle in these limited-edition navigators from the Kyosho Collection. Handcrafted in Japan from 100% beta titanium, these limited-edition spectacles are distinguished by lunar-edged eye-rims, a sculptural bridge, and extendable twist-lock temples, a unique feature complemented by our signature hand-painted epoxy temple-tips.
The concept of the Kyosho, or “master of art,” is what shapes this series of limited-edition spectacles, a homage to the many achievements of Japan’s influential artists, those with a unique proclivity for embracing the country’s dual traditions of craftsmanship and innovation. Each eyewear style highlights an individual whose tremendous talents and efforts have meaningfully elevated global culture. Not only have these creatives prioritized mastering their craft, but they’ve radically demonstrated that creativity is a commitment, as much about understanding the past as it is about shaping the future.
Here, our subject of focus is Daido Moriyama (b.1938), a celebrated photographer whose raw, expressive imagery and association with the avant-garde magazine Provoke helped redefine the language of contemporary photography.

Uncompromising Craftsmanship
At Jacques Marie Mage, craftsmanship is the very foundation of our creative ethos. Our eyewear is handcrafted in small batches by master artisans who blend generational expertise with leading-edge techniques. Shaped through hundreds of meticulous steps, each frame is a testament to design and discipline. Every detail—laminated colorways, custom wirecores, hand-polished finishes—reflects an enduring commitment to quality and care. In honoring craft, we resist disposability and redefine luxury as something deeply human, a tactile expression of history, heritage, and the belief that what is made with meaning should last for generations.
Honoring Heritage
Luxury isn’t about burning the bridges of the past for the skyscrapers of the future. Rather, it involves the delicate threading of history into unique goods made with superior materials and a studious attention to craft; it’s about believing and investing in artisanal processes and developing goods—and stories—that last. For us, heritage is not a relic, but a living, breathing framework for creation. To this end, we combine reverence for the past with a commitment to aesthetic innovation, producing small-batch goods that both honor and evolve the traditions that shaped them.
