Proudly presenting the latest chapter in an ongoing collaboration between two houses devoted to the enduring romance of the handmade, introducing original limited-edition eyewear and headwear that reflect a shared reverence for craftsmanship, heritage, and the expressive possibilities of personal style.

A continuing dialogue between friends and fellow makers, the Nick Fouquet for JMM collection marks the third release from a partnership that began in 2020. Since then, Fouquet and JMM founder Jérôme Mage have explored the expressive harmony between eyewear and headwear, informed by their French backgrounds and mutual fascination with the craft and culture of the American West.

Informed by coastal towns, historic villas, and cinematic leisure, these are limited-edition spectacles with a refined French sensibility, evoking the sun-faded grandeur of the seaside estate famously rented in 1971 by Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones to record Exile on Main St. Balancing architectural rigor with an insouciant ease, these are collectibles designed for slow drives and long, legendary nights.

Reflecting a transatlantic exchange united by timeless taste and reverence for tradition, this limited-edition ode to cultivated leisure and coastal composure translates the ease of a storied French resort town into a sculptural, enduring form. Deeply beveled eye rims and a fluid browline are complemented by our signature polished embellishments, expressing an unforced elegance that’s confident in its own easy sophistication.

With nuanced nonchalance, this limited-edition hat sculpted from 100% beaver felt is an emblem of both heritage and craft. Vintage French grosgrain trim and bow lends the silhouette a quiet romance, while a brushed white brass lapel pin with handshaped gemstone inlay introduces a distinctive contrast of material, texture, and tone. Finishing touches include custom silk lining, leather sweatband, and a signature NF matchstick.

Limited-edition spectacles are received in our signature monograph box set in Bordeaux Empire burgundy, which includes a custom envelope eyewear case in Brown leather, an  oversized “pocket square” cleaning cloth with custom creative, and a letterpress authenticity card featuring original writing from the designer, collection notes, and craftsman’s signature.
