Everything started again in 2011, when he found, in a pretty little street of Cannet, the space that would allow him to install his workshop.
A discreet but cozy place; a place that soon sees its first creations, a small shop in which the chrysalis will soon become butterfly and Florent Grellet, DokoMotto, the brand created for its brand new collection.
Glasses with amazing shapes, bold colours, rare pieces that give a look to those who wear them and make this craftsman an artist.
Nothing surprising about this quadra who learned his profession in the cradle of French bezeling – the Jura – and came out of the prestigious high school of optical crafts in Morez with a first design prize.
After several years in store, after correcting the view of thousands of customers and shaping so many faces to the colors and shapes of the big brands, he decides to return to his first loves to conceive himself what was a prosthesis and which has become over the years a real accessory.
Florent finds his leaves and pencils, and then the machines that bring new forms of glasses into his hands, which he designs as jewels.
He could have chosen Taiwan to edit them in series but this original seine and marnais, grandson of peasants, knows well the value and quality of the work « Made in France ».
That's why its frames, designed in one of the most beautiful villages in France, are made in Oyonnax, a centre of French competitiveness in plastics industry.
The DokoMotto collection is surprising: from Kokino and its futuristic look to the round glasses of our (back) grandfathers revisited, there is necessarily a pair for each face. And if you don't find your happiness there, Florent Grellet will offer you THE solution: it also creates custom glasses.
That's good reason to discover this collection!
The collections offered have remarkable aesthetic signatures. Florent invents but, like any designer, it is inspired by what has already been done in the bezel and fashion. Design and colours offer original combinations. If sometimes they can be considered extravagant, they must first offer comfort, aesthetic concordance and quality of manufacture. The glasses can be adopted by all. The range of choices is indeed very wide.
The brand Dokomotto is proposed by demanding opticians all over France. They want a partner with whom the relationship is simple and fruitful. They want their remarks to feed the work of the creator. That's what they know about the Dokomotto team. This creates a community around the brand. This success shows that the brand He's been flying. It is now possible to cross other borders. Florent realizes her dream as a creator.
